Truro. The Anglican diocese of Truro, covering Cornwall, was created in 1877. Until Anglo-Saxon times the Cornish Church had been independent; in 931 it was finally incorporated in the English Church and Cornwall became an English diocese. In 1027 it was annexed to the see of
Crediton and in 1050 the see of the united diocese was fixed at
Exeter.
