But surely cases of adultery in pre-Anglican days were held in
ecclesiastical courts (and probably afterwards as well: I presume the
Anglican Church developed its own code of canon law: was this based on the
Roman canons or started de novo somehow, based on common law?

You don't give a date for that definition. It doesn't seem to be a
mediaeval one. It certainly isn't reflected in English law (which separated
from that of Rome before the Council of Trent).
