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 Malaga Chaplaincy was formally established in 1850 when sufficient funds were raised to employ a chaplain. The British Consul had held services in his house for some years before 1850 and the chaplain continued to hold his services in the Consul's residence for most of the 19th century. A chapel was built in the 1890s beside the British cemetery.

Malaga was the first Anglican chaplaincy in Spain. Its congregation was described in the 19th century as consisting mainly of mechanics from the various British factories, with their families, augmented by sailors and invalids spending the winter in Malaga to improve their health.
