Life

Henry was the son of Henry of Sandwich, a knight from Sandwich, Kent. He held the prebend of Weldland in the diocese of London.[1]

Henry was Archdeacon of Oxford from 1259 to 1262.[2] He was elected Bishop of London on 13 November 1262, confirmed 21 December and consecrated on 27 May 1263. He was suspended from office on 1 December 1265 but was reinstated by Pope Gregory X on 31 May 1272. He returned to England from exile on 31 January 1273.[1]

Henry died on 15 September 1273.[3] After his death, his nephew Sir Ralph de Sandwich was made administrator of the See of London, having already acted as their administrator during Henry's exile in Rome.
