Pope Leo helps restore King Eardwulf of …
Years: 803 - 803
Pope Leo helps restore King Eardwulf of Northumbria and settles various matters of dispute between the Archbishops of York and Canterbury.
He also reverses the decision of his predecessor Pope Adrian I, in regards to the granting of the pallium to Higbert, Bishop of Lichfield.
He believes that the English episcopate had been misrepresented before Adrian and that therefore his act was invalid.
Lichfield is in 803 a regular diocese again.
