Henry Bowet (died 20 October 1423) was both Bishop of Bath and Wells and Archbishop of York.
[1] Bowet became Bishop of Bath and Wells on 19 August 1401,[2] and succeeded to the Archbishopric of York on 7 October 1407, after it had been vacant for two and a half years.
In 1402 Bowet briefly served as Lord High Treasurer, from February to October.
The Duke of Exeter marched to the relief of the town and Archbishop Bowet, then very old and feeble, had himself carried into the camp where his addresses are said to have greatly encouraged the English soldiers.
[5] Bowet died on 20 October 1423[3] at Cawood Bishop's Palace and was buried in his cathedral of York Minster.
