Cynered, (or Coenred) Bishop of Selsey.

He received a confirmation from Coelwulf, King of Mercia, 821-823 of the land originally granted by Noðhelm to his sister Noðgyð.[1]

He was present at a Synod æt Astran in 839.[2]

So, his bishopric can be dated approximately to (in or before 821-823) to (in or after 839), and that is much as the historical evidence permits.

He died sometime between 839 and 845.[3]
