Ealdwulf (died c. 815) was a medieval Bishop of Lichfield.
Ealdwulf was consecrated between 799 and 801 and died between 814 and 816. The historian D. P. Kirby speculates that the last act of his predecessor, Hygeberht, was to consecrate Ealdwulf, before Hygeberht resigned his archbishopric of Lichfield.
