Dean of Bradford

The Dean of Bradford is the head and chair of the chapter of canons, the ruling body of Bradford Cathedral. The dean and chapter are based at the Cathedral Church of St Peter in Bradford. Before 2000 the post was designated as a provost, which was then the equivalent of a dean at most English cathedrals. The cathedral is one of three co-equal mother churches of the Diocese of Leeds and a seat of the Bishop of Leeds; until 2014 it was the mother church of the now-defunct Diocese of Bradford and as such the seat of the diocesan Bishop of Bradford. The current dean is Jerry Lepine.

gollark: I figure I can probably do, say, message channels and timestamps without any issues, as long as it's only here, I have an opt out, and I'm clear about it.

gollark: The amount of privacy things I would have to deal with if I didn't just lyriclyishly ignore them might make the whole stats thing impractical.
