The Catholic Diocese of Lindisfarne is a titular see of the Catholic Church.
History
The diocese existed as a regular see from the seventh century until Bishop Aldhun moved it to Durham in 995.
In 1970, the Pope Paul VI revived it as the name of a titular see (Latin: Lindisfarna). The first three officeholders served as auxiliary bishops in the Diocese of Westminster. The fourth is an apostolic nuncio and was granted the personal title of archbishop. As of 2024[update], all titular Bishops of Lindisfarne have been British or Irish.
Holders of the title
- Victor Guazzelli (1970–2004)
- John Arnold (2005–2014), later Bishop of Salford
- John Wilson (2016–2019), later Archbishop of Southwark
- Michael Francis Crotty, with the dignity of archbishop (2020–present)
