Wulfstan (), Bishop of Worcester from 1062 to 1095, was the last surviving pre-Conquest bishop and the only English-born bishop after 1075. Wulfstan is a Christian saint. After the Norman conquest of England, he was the only English-born bishop to retain his diocese for any significant time after the Conquest after signing the Accord of Winchester in 1072. In 1075, Wulfstan and the Worcestershire fyrd militia countered the Revolt of the Earls, when various magnates attempted a rebellion against William the Conqueror.
