Henry of Newark (died 15 August 1299) was a medieval Archbishop of York.
Nothing is known of Henry's ancestry, but he probably took his name from Newark-on-Trent in Nottinghamshire, where he owned some property.
[1] Henry was canon of Hereford by 22 February 1273 and was named archdeacon of Richmond on 28 April 1279.
[4] Henry was elected Archbishop of York on 7 May 1296,[5] but failed to go to Pope Boniface VIII and was consequently deprived of office.
[2] In 1297, Henry led the clergy of his diocese in approving King Edward's request for a tax on clerical incomes, in contrast to the behaviour of the bishops of the south, who led by Robert Winchelsey had refused to pay the tax.
