Historia biográfica

The Bishop of London was held to exercise responsibility for Anglican churches overseas where no other bishop had been appointed. He retained responsibility for churches in northern and central Europe until 1980, but his jurisdiction in southern Europe ceased in 1842 on the creation of the diocese of Gibraltar. In 1980, the Bishop of London divested himself of all overseas jurisdiction and a new diocese of 'Gibraltar in Europe' was established.

In Oporto, Anglican chaplains were appointed to the British Factory until the early 19th century when foreign Factories in Portugal were abolished. It was also at this time, following the legalizing of building of Anglican churches in some Roman Catholic countries, that a decision was made to build a church in Oporto. The church was completed at the end of 1818, but was not consecrated until August 1843, being dedicated to St James.
