History

The earliest historical notice of Ely is given by the Venerable Bede who writes (Hist. Eccl., IV, xix): Bede, commonly known as the Venerable Bede, (c. ...

"Ely is in the province of the East Angles, a country of about six hundred families, in the nature of an island, enclosed either with marshes or waters, and therefore it has its name from the great abundance of eels which are taken in those marshes."

This district was assigned in 649 to saint Æthelthryth, daughter of Anna, king of the East Angles, as a dowry in her marriage with Tonbert of the South Girvii. After her second marriage to Ecgfrith of Northumbria, she became a nun, and in 673 returned to Ely and founded a monastery on the site of the present cathedral. As endowment she gave it her entire principality of the isle, from which subsequent Bishops of Ely derived their temporal power. Æthelthryth died in 679, and her shrine became a place of pilgrimage. In 870 the monastery was destroyed by the Danes, having already given to the Church four sainted abbesses, Saints Æthelthryth, her sister Seaxburgh, the latter's daughter Ermenilda, and Ermenilda's daughter Werburgh. Probably under their rule there was a community of monks as well as a convent of nuns, but when in 970 the monastery was restored by King Edgar and Bishop Ethelwold it was a foundation for monks only. Æthelthryth (also Etheldreda, Ediltrudis, Audrey or Awdrey) (c. ... Anna (d. ... Ecgfrith (645–May 20, 685) was the King of Northumbria from 670 until his death. ... Saint Seaxburh or Sexburga of Ely (died c. ... Saint Ermenilda (or Eormenhild, Ermenildis, Ermengild) (d. ... Werburgh (also known as Werburga) (d. ...

For more than a century the monastery flourished, till about the year 1105 Abbot Richard suggested the creation of the See of Ely, to relieve the enormous Diocese of Lincoln. The pope's brief erecting the new bishopric was issued 21 November 1108, and in October 1109 King Henry I granted his charter, the first Bishop being Hervé le Breton, or Harvey (1109-1131), former Bishop of Bangor. The monastery church thus became one of the "conventual" cathedrals. Of this building the transepts and two bays of the nave already existed, and in 1170 the nave as it stands to-day (a complete and perfect specimen of late Norman work) was finished. As the bishops succeeded to the principality of St Etheldreda they enjoyed palatine power and great resources. Henry I of England (c. ... The Bishop of Bangor heads the Church in Wales diocese of Bangor centred upon Bangor Cathedral. ...

The Bishops of Ely usually held high office in the State and the roll includes many names of famous statesmen, including eight Lord Chancellors and six Lord Treasurers. The Bishops of Ely spent much of their wealth on their cathedral, with the result that Ely can show beautiful examples of gothic architecture of every period.

Among his successors Geoffry Riddell (1174-1189) built nave and began the West Tower, Eustace (1198-1215) the West Porch, while Hugh de Norwold (1229-1254) rebuilt the Norman choir and John Hotham (1316-1337) rebuilt the collapsed central tower. Bishop John Alcock (1486-1500) was the founder of Jesus College, Cambridge. Two bishops - John de Fontibus and Hugh Belsham - were reputed saints, but never received formal cult; the former was commemorated on 19 June. Bishop Goodrich showed reforming tendencies and during his pontificate the monastery with all its dependencies was suppressed. The last Catholic bishop was Thomas Thirlby, who was one of the eleven confessor-bishops imprisoned by Elizabeth and who died imprisoned at Lambeth in 1570.
