Welsh Church Act 1914




G.K. Chesterton famously ridiculed the passion that the Bill aroused when he asked ''Are they clinging to their crosses F.E. Smith ?'' in his poem ''Antichrist, or the Reunion of Christendom: An Ode''.

Owing to the intervention of the First World War , the Act did not come into force until 31 March 1920 , when the Welsh part of the Church of England become the Church In Wales , an independent Province of the Anglican Communion , with six Diocese s lead by the Archbishop Of Wales .
