Archdeacon of the Isles

Last updated • 1 min readFrom Wikipedia, The Free Encyclopedia

The Archdeacon of the Isles (or Sodor) was the only archdeacon in the diocese of the Isles, acting as a subordinate of the Bishop of the Isles. The number and names of the prebends, if any, associated with the archdeaconry in the later Middle Ages are not known. [1] Before the break-away of the diocese of Man during the Western Schism, the archdeacons held Kirk Andreas as a prebend. [2] The office seems to have fallen into disuse after the time of Alasdair Caimbeul, who received crown presentation to the position in 1592. [3] It was to be revived in 1662. [3]
