A man of ability and energy, Flambard rapidly rose during the reign of the Conqueror's son William Rufus from superintendent of the royal kitchens, to chancellor, treasurer, Bishop of Durham and was William's most trusted friend and adviser.

Though Flambard was a Christian priest in name only, he is remembered for his building of Durham Cathedral and the Abbey church at Christchurch in Dorset.

During the reign of Henry I (1100-1135), Anselm was recalled and restored to canterbury and Ranulf Flambard was imprisoned.

Flambard died in 1128 and is buried in Durham Cathedral.
