Or, if it does, it's not obvious.
Anglican doesn't mean "Church of England" in the Church in Wales or indeed elsewhere in the world.

Church of England is implied as its the established church. Hence you see many churches calling themselves so and so Parish Church eg Liverpool Parish Church. This can cause confusion too. The Liverpool A to Z map from the early 1990s use to label Liverpool Cathedral the C of E Cathedral. These days its the Anglican Cathedral.

If it's the Metropolitan cathedral in Liverpool why isn't it called the Roman Catholic Metropolitan Cathedral.



I wonder what happens in Armagh where they have two Metropolitan Cathedrals.
