Dean and Chapter of Ripon

List of the Prebends in Ripon Cathedral

The Dean and Chapter of Ripon Cathedral are the ecclesiastical governing body of Ripon Cathedral. They consist of the dean and several canons meeting in chapter and are also (less frequently) known as the Dean and Canons of Ripon.

Ripon Cathedral was a collegiate church until 1547 when it was dissolved. Collegiate status was restored on 2 August 1604 when King James I of England issued a Charter of Restoration. ^[1] The Charter made Ripon a collegiate church with a Dean and 6 canons.

In 1836 the new bishopric of Ripon was founded, ^[2] and the number of prebendaries reduced, after the vacation of two of the stalls, to four residentiary canons.
