Bishop of Sodor and Man
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Bishop of Sodor and Man is the Ordinary of the Church of England Diocese of Sodor and Man in the Province of York.
The diocese covers the Isle of Man. The see is in the city of Peel where the bishop's seat is located at the Cathedral Church of St German, elevated to cathedral status on 1 November 1980.
The present Anglican diocese is called "Sodor and Man". The termination "and Man" appears to have been added in the 17th century and the designation "Sodor and Man" had become a fixture by 1684.
The current bishop is the Right Reverend Graeme Paul Knowles, AKC, the 80th Bishop of Sodor and Man, who signs Graeme Sodor and Man.
