Ælfsige II (bishop of Winchester)

Ælfsige II served as the Bishop of Winchester in the 11th century. His tenure is primarily noted for its brevity and occurring within a period of significant political upheaval in England, marked by Danish incursions and the reign of Æthelred the Unready. Details about his life and episcopate are scarce, relying mainly on surviving episcopal lists and charters. While specific achievements or events directly attributable to him are not widely documented, his position within the ecclesiastical hierarchy of Winchester, a major religious and political center of the time, indicates his involvement in the administration of the diocese and the broader affairs of the English church. His predecessor was Ælfweard, and he was succeeded by Ælfwine.
