St Paul's Cathedral is the diocesan cathedral of the Diocese of London.. The Anglican Diocese of London forms part of the Province of Canterbury in England.Historically the diocese covered a large area north of the River Thames which included all of Essex and southern and Eastern parts of Hertfordshire, and bordered the dioceses of Norwich and Lincoln to the north and west.
