The Roman Catholic Church is the world's largest Christian Church, and its largest religious grouping. There are an estimated 5 Million baptised Catholics in Great Britain.
The present hierarchy was established in 1850, and specifically avoided using places that were seats of Church of England dioceses as seats. There are now four dioceses based in the same town (Birmingham, Liverpool, Portsmouth, and Southwark) these were caused by the Church of England establishing cathedrals in cities that already had Catholic cathedrals.
The presiding bishop is the Archbishop of Westminster.
