The Diocese of Meath ({{lang-ga|Deoise na Mí}}) is an Irish diocese which took its name after the ancient Kingdom of Meath.[1][2][3] In the Roman Catholic Church it still exists as a separate diocese, but in the Church of Ireland it has been united with other dioceses. HistoryClonard Abbey was founded by Saint Finnian, first Abbot of Clonard, in the early sixth century. There had been a number monastic bishops at the abbey, but it was not until the Synod of Rathbreasail in 1111 that the diocese of Clonard was established. Its boundaries were set at the Synod of Kells in 1152, which covered roughly the western part of the Kingdom of Meath with the diocesan bishop's seat (cathedra) located at Clonard Abbey.[4] During the twelfth century the bishops of Clonard acquired most of Meath as their territory, and frequently used the title "bishop of Meath" or "bishop of the men of Meath". After Bishop Simon Rochfort transferred his seat from Clonard to Trim in 1202, the title "bishop of Meath" became the normal style.[4][5]Following the Reformation, there are two parallel apostolic successions.
