Robert Mascall (or Maschal) (died 22 December 1416) was a medieval Carmelite friar who served as the Bishop of Hereford from 1404 to 1416.
Mascall was born at Ludlow, Shropshire, where at an early age he became a Carmelite friar.[1] He was educated at the University of Oxford, gaining a distinction in philosophy and theology.[1] Probably in 1400, King Henry IV appointed Mascall his confessor.[1]
Mascall was appointed the Bishop of the Diocese of Hereford by papal provision on 2 July and consecrated on 6 July 1404.[2][3][4] He received possession of the temporalities of the See of Hereford on 25 September 1404.[2][4]
Mascall died in office on 22 December 1416.[2][4]
