Chapter III of the Council is sweeping in its prohibition: 'That no bishop shall in any way interfere with any monasteries dedicated to God nor take away forcibly any part of their property'. Canons of the penitential grant to the monastic community the right of selecting its own abbot (canons I and III).

Four years afterward (668), Theodore of Tarsus turned out to be archbishop of Canterbury, fashioned dioceses, and gave the English church its fundamental structure.
The gathering of Celtic and Roman Christianity in Northumbria formed a swell up of scholarship unsurpassed in Western Europe:
The Venerable Bede, a Northumbrian monk, was the most exceptional European scholar of his epoch He is revered for his Ecclesiastical History of the English People. Alcuin of York, a different Northumbrian, was selected by Charlemagne.
