The bishop's seat at Sidnacester (Syddensis) has been placed, by various commentators, at Caistor, Louth, Horncastle and, most often, at Stow, all in present-day Lincolnshire, England.[2] The location remains unknown.[3] More recently Lincoln has been suggested as a possible site,[2] such as the inner-city suburb of Wigford.[4]
After an interruption by the DanishViking invasions and establishment of the Danelaw in the 9th century, the see of Lindsey was resumed in the mid-10th century until it was united with the bishopric of Dorchester in the early 11th century.
