The Roman Catholic Church was the important Church in England during the Middle Ages.
In the geographical area of present England, there was a Church referred to as the Celtic Church before the mission of St. Augustine of Canterbury. This Church was in conflict with the Roman Catholic Church about two very important issues. One was the date of Easter, and the other was the tonsure (haircut) of the monks. The Council of Whitby met to decide these vital issues, and ruled in favor of the practices of the Roman Catholic Church, which decided the whole things as far as Northumbria was concerned. The Celtic Church leaders gradually took on the practices of the Roman Catholics after that.

What Christian Church did most people belong to in the Middle Ages?
The most important Church of the Middle Ages was the Catholic Church. When it split in 1054, it became the Roman Catholic Church in the West and the Eastern Orthodox Church in the East. There were always other Churches. The Celtic Church, the Coptic Orthodox Church and the Oriental Orthodox Churches were very early and all predated the Middle Ages. The Celtic Christian Church was absorbed by the Catholic Church, but the others continue. There were also heterodox organizations outside orthodox Christianity, and some of these were declared heretical, in some cases resulting in military operations.
