The Catholic church of St William of York in Send Marsh Road, Send. William FitzHerbert, also called William of Thwayt, was appointed Archbishop of York in 1142. However, his appointment raised opposition and jealousy and he was suspended and then deposed in 1147. He was reinstated in 1153 but died within a few weeks, amidst suspicions that he was poisoned. He was canonised in 1227.
