 | | How does she rate, for instance, Aelfheah, Aelfric, Aethelheard, Aethelnoth, Athelm, Berhtwald, Bregowine, Byrthelm, Ceolnoth, Cuthbert, Deusdedit, Honorious, Jaenberht, Justus, Lanfranc, Laurentius, Oda, Plegmund, Robert of Jumièges, Sigeric, Stigand, Tatwine, Theodore and Wulfred, to take only some of the earliest incumbents? |
