The Anglican Church is known as the Church of England. The global leader of the Anglican Church is the Archbishop of Canterbury. The monarch of the United Kingdom is officially the head of the Anglican Church although this is strictly a ceremonial position.
The Anglican Church or The Church of England is currently led by Archbishop of Canterbury Rowan Williams, he is essentially the "chief bishop" or primate of the Church of England. The Anglican Church unlike the Roman Church does NOT have a pope and does not believe in infallability of their leaders. Only God is infallable, Jesus is the supreme head and authority of the Church!

It is not a case of 'did' he do as he is still very much with us Thank God! The Church of England is split into two 'provinces' - of Canterbury and York. Other provinces of the worldwide Anglican Church include the Church in Wales, the Episcopaliand in the US and other churches in the Anglican communion throughout the world. The Rt Rev John Sentamu is the archbishop of the province of York and is spiritual leader of the York province of the Anglican Church. he is second in rank to the Archbishop of Canterbury. His 'job' is to lead the Church within the province, and to represent the Anglican Church worldwide in the absence of the Archbishop of Canterbury - in the same way as the Pope would do in the Roman Catholic Church. One should not be confused, however, between the term 'spiritual leader', 'supreme governor' and 'head' of the Anglican Church. John sentamu is the spiritual leader of the province of York, Rowan Williams is the Spiritual Leader of the Anglican Church, The Supreme Governor of the Anglican Church is always the reigning King or Queen - presently Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, and the Head of the Church is Jesus Christ.
The Archbishop of Canterbury (currently Rowan Williams) is the bishop f the diocese of Canterbury as well as the archbishop of the province of Canterbury (one of two provinces in England - the other being at York). He is also spiritual leader of the Church of England and spiritual leader of the whole of the Anglican Communion worldwide.
Anglican priests usually live in their own homes or, if the parish they serve has a parsonage, the priest and his family may choose to live there. The great majority of Anglican priests are married and live with their families. There are Anglican monasteries; however, the residents of a monastery are referred to as monks. A region of Anglican parishes is known as a Diocese and the head of a Diocese is called a Bishop. The head Bishop over all of the Anglican Bishops in a given country is called the Presiding Bishop and the head of all Anglicans, worldwide, is the Archbishop of Cantebury.
