Bosa (died 9 March 705) was a Northumbrian, educated at the great Abbey of Whitby under St. Hilda.Thacker "Bosa [St Bosa] (died 706)" "Oxford Dictionary of National Biography" [http://www.oxforddnb.com/view/article/2926 Online Edition] accessed 9 November 2007] He later joined the brethren there as a monkStenton "Anglo Saxon England" 3rd ed. p. 135-136] and became a noted scholar.

In 678, when Wilfrid was ejected from the Bishopric of York and banished from the Kingdom, Bosa was given his diocese over which to preside. His episcopate lasted nine years, but with Wilfrid back in favour in 687, Bosa was removed just like his predecessor. He was returned once more in 691.Fryde "Handbook of British Chronology" p. 224] He is regarded as a saint, with a feast day of 9 March.
