A royal charter by Henry VIII (37 Henry VIII) granting ecclesiastical concessions to Henry Man, Bishop of the Isle of Man, permitting him to hold the Deanery of Chester Cathedral and parochial churches in commendam during his lifetime whilst maintaining his bishopric. The document establishes early institutional precedent for benefice-holding and ecclesiastical governance relevant to understanding the Isle of Man's religious and administrative structure before the 1765 Revestment.
