Is there a legal requirement to have a church warden in the Anglican church?

Yes, there is a legal requirement to have church wardens in the Anglican Church, particularly within the Church of England. According to the Churchwardens Act of 2001, every parish must have at least one church warden, who is elected by the congregation.
