Feologild
(Died AD 832)
Archbishop of Canterbury
Died: 30th August AD 832

Feologild was Abbot of a Kentish Monastery and was elected to the Archbishopric in AD 832, but died within three months of his consecration. He appears to have had a rival to the Archiepiscopate in the person of one Suithred.
