Archdeacon of Birmingham

The Archdeacon of Birmingham is a senior ecclesiastical officer within the Diocese of Birmingham.

The archdeaconry was created within the Diocese of Worcester by Order-in-Council on 12 August 1892 (substantially from the Archdeaconry of Coventry but also from a small part of the Worcester archdeaconry)[1] but became part of the new Diocese of Birmingham upon its creation by Order-in-Council on 13 January 1905.[2]

The Archdeacon is responsible for the disciplinary supervision of the clergy[3] within the seven area deaneries: Central Birmingham, Edgbaston, Handsworth, Kings Norton, Moseley, Shirley, and Warley.

The current archdeacon is Jenny Tomlinson.[4].
