Saint John of Beverley, born in the late 7th century in Harpham, Northumbria, was an 8th-century bishop whose holiness and miracles made him a revered figure in Anglo-Saxon England. Trained at Whitby Monastery under Saint Hilda, he became Bishop of Hexham (687) and later York (705), ordaining Bede and fostering monastic life. Known for healing a mute boy and protecting Beverley’s lands—later credited with English victories like Stamford Bridge (1066)—he retired to his Beverley monastery, dying on May 7, 721. His shrine became a pilgrimage hub, drawing kings like Henry V. | Saint John of Beverley, born in the late 7th century in Harpham, Northumbria, was an 8th-century bishop whose holiness and miracles made him a revered figure in Anglo-Saxon England.
