Antony Bek, Bishop of Norwich

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Antony Bek (also spelled Beck) (127919 December 1343) was the chancellor and dean of Lincoln Cathedral and became bishop of Norwich after a disputed election in 1337.

He was a quarrelsome man and, after a stormy episcopate, died on 19 December 1343.

He is not to be confused with Antony Bek, bishop of Durham and Latin patriarch of Jerusalem, his kinsman and namesake.
