Archdeacon of Westmorland and Furness

The Archdeacon of Westmorland and Furness is a senior ecclesiastical officer within the Diocese of Carlisle.[1] As such he or she is responsible for the disciplinary supervision of the clergy [2] within its four rural deaneries: Barrow, Windermere, Kendal and Furness.[3]
