  • The Bishop of London is the Ordinary of the Church of England Diocese of London in the Province of Canterbury. The diocese covers 458 km² (177 sq. mi. ) of 17 boroughs of Greater London north of the River Thames (historically the County of Middlesex) and a small part of the County of Surrey. The see is in the City of London where the seat is located at the Cathedral Church of Saint Paul which was founded as a cathedral in 604 and was rebuilt from 1675 following the Great Fire of London (1666). The Bishop's residence is The Old Deanery, Dean's Court, London. Previously, for over a thousand years Fulham Palace was the residence, although, from the eighteenth century, London House, next to the Bishop's Chapel in Aldersgate Street, was where he had his chambers, and was used as a more convenient place for the Bishop to conduct his affairs. Third in seniority in the Church of England after the Archbishops of Canterbury and York, the Bishop is one of five senior bishops, alongside the Archbishop of Canterbury, the Archbishop of York, the Bishop of Durham, and the Bishop of Winchester, who sit as of right as one of the 26 Lords Spiritual in the House of Lords (as opposed to the remaining diocesan bishops of lesser rank, for whom elevation to one of the seats reserved is attained upon its vacancy and is determined by chronological seniority). The current Bishop of London is the Right Reverend and Right Honourable Richard John Carew Chartres, the 132nd Lord Bishop of London, who was installed on 26 January 1996 and who signs Richard Londin.
  • L'évêque de Londres est à la tête du diocèse anglican de Londres, dans la province de Cantorbéry. Il siège à la cathédrale Saint-Paul. Il s'agit de l'un des cinq « grands sièges », avec les deux archevêchés et les évêchés de Durham et Winchester, dont les titulaires sont systématiquement membres de la Chambre des Lords. De par sa situation, l'évêque de Londres a souvent eu une influence notable sur des membres de la famille royale anglaise et sur divers politiciens. Il est le troisième ecclésiastique d'Angleterre en importance, derrière les archevêques de Cantorbéry et d'York.
