  • Die Ursprünge der Diözese Ely sind sehr alt. Sie wurde von der Heiligen Æthelthryth durch die Gründung eines Doppelklosters ins Leben gerufen. Das Kloster wurde zuerst von einer Äbtissin und später von einem Abt geleitet. Das Kloster und große Teile der Stadt Ely wurden während der dänischen Invasionen um 870 zerstört. Ein neues Benediktinerkloster wurde von dem Bischof von Winchester, Æthelwold, erbaut und ausgestattet. Dies wurde zu einer Kathedrale im Jahre 1109 erhoben und zum Sitz des Bischofs von Ely. Ab diesem Zeitpunkt beginnt die Linie der Bischöfe. (de)

Conway became Bishop of Ely in 2010, translated from the Diocese of Salisbury where he was Bishop suffragan of Ramsbury. The roots of the Diocese of Ely are ancient and the area of Ely was part of the patrimony of Saint Etheldreda. Prior to the elevation of Ely Cathedral as the seat of the diocese, it existed as first as a convent of religious sisters and later as a monastery. It was led by first by an abbess and later by an abbot. The convent was founded in the city in 673. After St Etheldreda's death in 679 she was buried outside the church. Her remains were later translated inside, the foundress being commemorated as a great Anglican saint. The monastery, and much of the city of Ely, were destroyed in the Danish invasions that began in 869 or 870. A new Benedictine monastery was built and endowed on the site by Saint Athelwold, Bishop of Winchester, in 970, in a wave of monastic refoundations which also included Peterborough and Ramsey. In the Domesday Book in 1086, the Bishop of Ely is referenced as a landholder of Foxehola. This became a cathedral in 1109, after a new Diocese of Ely was created out of land taken from the Diocese of Lincoln. From that time the line of bishops begins. (en)
