- Robert Burnell (sometimes Robert Burnel) (c. 1239 – 25 October 1292) was an English bishop who served as Lord Chancellor of England from 1274–1292. A native of Shropshire, he served as a minor royal official before switching to the service of Prince Edward, the future King Edward I of England. When Edward went on Eighth Crusade in 1270, Burnell stayed in England to secure the prince's interests. He served as regent after the death of King Henry III of England while Edward was still on Crusade. He was twice elected Archbishop of Canterbury, but his personal life prevented his confirmation by the popes. He was elected Bishop of Bath and Wells in 1275, after King Edward had appointed him Lord Chancellor in 1274. As chancellor, Burnell was behind efforts of the royal officials to enforce royal rights, including the implementation of the Quo warranto procedures. He also helped with the legislative and legal reforms of Edward's reign. During Burnell's tenure the chancellor's office and records became fixed at London. Until his death in 1292, Burnell continued to enjoy the king's trust. Burnell went abroad on diplomatic missions for Edward, and for a time governed Gascony. Burnell's personal life included keeping a long-term mistress, who was rumoured to have borne him four sons.
