Cuncacestre
Cuncacestre (Chester-le-Street〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Titular Episcopal See of Concangis, United Kingdom )〕) is a Roman Catholic titular see and was a former seat of the Anglo Saxon Bishop of Lindisfarne.
==Start of the Diocese==
The church was established to house the body of Cuthbert of Lindisfarne, Bishop of Lindisfarne from 684 to 687. After his death he became one of the most venerated saints of the time, with a significant cultus and the Venerable Bede writing both a verse and prose biography of him. So when driven out of Lindisfarne by Viking raids in 875 the monks, led by Eardulf of Lindisfarne, took St Cuthbert's coffin along with other valuable items, indluding the Lindisfarne Gospels. They wandered for seven years.
They eventually settled at Chester-le-Street (then called Cunecaster or Conceastre), at the site of the old Roman fort of Concangis, in 883, on land granted to them by Guthred.
They built a wooden church and shrine for St Cuthbert's relics, dedicating it to St Mary and St Cuthbert. Though there was no shortage of stone in the ruins of Concangis they did not build a stone church; it has been suggested they did not intend to stay for as long as they eventually did. It was built within the Roman fort, which although abandoned over five hundred years before may have still offered some protection, as well as access north and south along Cade's Road and to the sea by the River Wear.〔Selkirk (2000) pp. 337–40〕
