Aldwine[a] (died 737) was a medieval Bishop of Lichfield and Bishop of Leicester.
History
Around 721 Aldwine succeeded Headda as bishop of the Mercians; his see was at Lichfield.[1] He held the see of Leicester at the same time as he was at Lichfield.[2] Between the years 723 and 737, Aldwine witnessed a charter of Æthelbald of Mercia granting to the Earl Aethilric 20 hides of land to build the minster of St. Mary at Wootton Wawen.[3] In June 731, he participated in the consecration of the Mercian abbot Tatwine as Archbishop of Canterbury.
Aldwine died in 737.
