Only two medieval churches in England were dedicated to Wulfram, the chief of which is St Wulfram, Grantham, Lincolnshire.
Here is an image of its wonderful spire seen over the rooftops of the town:

“Wulfram was educated at Clovis's court and showed a gift for academic learning. He took holy orders and seems to have intended a quiet life but was called to the court of Theodoric III (Thierry III) of Neustria. This seems to have propelled him into greater prominence since, in 692, he was elected Archbishop of Sens. (There are various versions of this date, from 682). At any rate, he was in the post in 693, when he attended an assembly of bishops at Valenciennes.” (Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wulfram_of_Sens)
