What was the seat of the Archbishop of the Catholic Church in England and later the Protestant Church of England?
Canterbury. The Archbishop of Canterbury is the top clergyman in the Church of England. He would perform royal weddings, blessings, funerals, etc. It is interesting that Canterbury is always used and not London, Westminster, or Windsor, where the church functions would be, and are performed. Canterbury is the Bishopric.
He still is the top clergyman, his role is hostoric going back to the martyrdom of Thomas a Becket.....his role is extremely important to the solidarity of the Protestant/Anglican church in the UK

Where is the HQ of church of England?
It's just Catholic, not Roman Catholic. Roman is an epithet first commonly used in England after the protestant revolt to describe the Catholic Church. It is never used by the official Catholic Church. The "headquarters" of each particular Catholic Church is in its Cathedral, thus each diocese is a "particular Church" headed by a Bishop (or Archbishop). There really is no such thing as the Catholic Church in England, as such, there is the Catholic Church of Westminster, the Catholic Church of York, etc. However, you are probably looking for the Cardinal Archbishop of Westminster, as he is considered the first of the Bishops of England. His see is in Westminster Cathedral in London.
