Diocesan Structure
The diocese is divided into two archdeaconries, each of which is further divided into deaneries (groups of parishes). The Archdeaconry of Bristol, created in 1836, is divided into the deaneries of Bristol City; Bristol South; and Bristol West. The Archdeaconry of Malmesbury is divided into the deaneries of Chippenham; Kingswood and South Gloucestershire; North Wiltshire; and Swindon.

“For the structure that we raise,
Time is with materials filled;
Our to-days and yesterdays
Are the blocks with which we build.”
