John Whitgift (c. 1530 – 29 February 1604) was the Archbishop of Canterbury from 1583 to his death. Noted for his hospitality he was somewhat ostentatious in his habits sometimes visiting Canterbury and other towns attended by a retinue of 800 horses. Whitgift’s theological views were often controversial.
