William Phelip, 6th Baron Bardolf, KG was Treasurer of the King's Household and Royal Chamberlain.
Sir William was son of Sir John Phelip of Dennington, Suffolk, knight, and is described as being a valiant soldier in the wars in France during the reign of King Henry V of England. He became Treasurer of the King's Household, and on the King's death had the chief conduct of his funeral. He is said to have been created Lord Bardolf by Letters Patent of Henry VI but it does not appear that he ever had a summons to parliament. He was a Knight of the Garter, and Chamberlain to King Henry VI.
Sir William Phelip married Joan daughter and co-heir of the attainted Thomas Bardolf, 5th Lord Bardolf.
His wife died before 1447, as in that year the Executors of Joan, Lady Bardolf, sold her property of Erpingham manor, in St.Martin's at the Palace, at Norwich, to William Calthorpe.
Lord Bardolf left a daughter, Elizabeth Phelip, who married John Beaumont, 1st Viscount Beaumont, the first Viscount to be created in England. He was killed at the Battle of Northampton 1460.
