John Rowe (minister)

John Rowe (1626–1677) was an English clergyman, minister to an important Congregationalist church in London.

The floor of an upper room of The White Hart Inn collapsed during a performance by travelling players of Mucedorus.

[6] In 1659 at the State Funeral of John Bradshaw, the President of the Court that had condemned Charles I, he gave the eulogy.

However, he was displaced from his position by the Restoration of 1660, and in 1662 refused to conform, losing his status and being ejected as Anglican minister.

He took over the church after Gale’s death, and moved it to Girdlers’ Hall, which opened in 1681 in Basinghall Street.
