John Howden, O.P., D.D., was a pre-Reformation cleric who served as the Bishop of Sodor and Man in the first half of the 16th century.[1][2][3]

A Dominican friar, he was appointed the bishop of the Diocese of Sodor and Man by papal provision on 18 May[1][3] or 19 June 1523.[2] He is said to have vacated the see by 17 February 1530, however, a bishop "John" was mentioned in documents in July 1532 and 2 July 1533.[3] The certain next bishop of Sodor and Man was Thomas Stanley who was elevated to the bishopric in 1542.
