The Diocese of Bradford's location in England (You may need to scroll down the page to get to the map.)

The Diocese of Bradford stretches from the boundary with Leeds and Wakefield, in the southeast, to just beyond Sedburgh, in Cumbria in the north. It is a place of contrasts; both deeply urban and deeply rural (60% of the diocese is open green space), with different challenges and opportunities in both areas. The Diocese is divided into two Archdeaconries, each comprising four Deaneries:

Bradford Archdeaconry(mostly urban)

• Airedale Deanery
• Bowling and Horton Deanery
• Calverly Deanery
• Otley Deanery

Craven Archdeaconry (mostly rural)

• Bowland Deanery
• Ewecross Deanery
• Skipton Deanery
• South Craven Deanery
