Dean of Southwell


The Dean of Southwell is the head and chair of the chapter of canons, the ruling body of Southwell Minster. The dean and chapter are based at the Cathedral and Parish Church of the Blessed Virgin Mary in Southwell, Nottinghamshire. Before 2000 the post was designated as a provost: the title was then the equivalent of dean where the cathedral was also a parish church. The cathedral is the mother church of the Diocese of Southwell and Nottingham and seat of the Bishop of Southwell and Nottingham. The current interim Dean is The Revd Canon Dr Neil Evans, with Stephen Evans announced as dean from April 2026.
