The diocese of Liverpool is a diocese of the Church of England in North West England. The diocese covers Merseyside north of the River Mersey, south-west Lancashire, western Greater Manchester, and part of northern Cheshire. Liverpool Cathedral is the seat of the bishop of Liverpool, currently John Perumbalath, and the diocesan offices are also located in Liverpool.[1] The bishop is assisted by one suffragan bishop, the bishop of Warrington.
What is now the diocese of Liverpool was historically part of the diocese of Coventry and Lichfield, and became part of the newly-created diocese of Chester in 1541.[2] The diocese of Liverpool was established on 9 April 1880.[3]
