Eardulf of Lindisfarne
Eardulf of Lindisfarne (died 900) was Bishop of Lindisfarne for a forty six years between 854, following the death of his predecessor, and his own death in 900. He was chiefly responsible for removing the remains of St Cuthbert from Lindisfarne to protect them from Viking invasion, eventually resettling them in Chester-le-Street and temporarily running the see from there.
