GB 0074 CLC/338 1910-1963 Collection 6 production units. Cartagena Anglican Chaplaincy , Spain

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.

The chaplaincy was established in 1910. It closed during the Spanish Civil War and then closed permanently in 1963. From 1921-3 services were held in the Seamen's Institute and between 1942-63 in private residences. At other times services were conducted in a "church room" in Cartagena.

The records of the chaplaincy were deposited in the Manuscripts Section of Guildhall Library by the Diocese of Gibraltar in Europe in October 1987 and January 1997. The Guildhall Library Manuscripts Section merged with the London Metropolitan Archives in 2009.
