Wilfrid II was the last Bishop of York, as the see was converted to an Archbishopric during the time of his successor. He embellished York Minster during his time, having silver vessels made for use at the altar and having the altar and the crosses covered with gold and silver leaf. He resigned the Bishopric in 732.
