There are 7 Catholic archbishops in the UK:
Birmingham, Cardiff, Glasgow, Liverpool, Saint Andrews and Edinburgh, Southwark, and Westminster.

there's only 1 anglican archbishop - the archbishop of Canterbury - the rest are just bishops.

I don't know if there even ARE any Catholic churches, are there? Everything was converted over to the church of England (Protestantism) hundreds of years ago.
