High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Athelwold was the first Bishop of Carlisle. AEthelwold's name and the fact that he owned lands in Yorkshire suggests that Athelwold was of English birth, and not a Norman. He was an Augstinian canon who first served King Henry I of England as his confessor. Sometime about 1122, he persuaded Henry to help a group of clerics at Nostell find a new site for their priory. Athelwold then became prior of the newly established Nostell Priory. Some reports give Athelwold a role as an advisor to King Henry during the selection of William de Corbeil as Archbishop of Canterbury in 1123. While prior he built the crypt of the monastic church and represented King Henry at a papal council held at Rheims in 1131. He also founded daughter houses of Nostell at Scone in Scotland.
