Born William Sutton, of Dudley, he was a younger son of John Sutton, 1st Baron Dudley.[1] He was made a canon of St George's Chapel, Windsor and Dean of the Chapel Royal in 1471 and elevated to Dean of Windsor in 1473, a position which he held with that of Dean of Wolverhampton: thereafter the two posts were customarily held by the same man.

Dudley was nominated to Durham on 31 July 1476 and was consecrated between 1 September and 12 October 1476. In 1483 he supported Richard, Duke of Gloucester, the future King Richard III, in his bid for the Throne of England.[2] In the last months of his life he was Chancellor of Oxford University.[1] Dudley died on 29 November 1483.[3][4]
