Herbert Hampton (1862 – 11 February 1929) was an English sculptor, artist, and creator of public memorials, who was active between 1888 and 1927.
Hampton was born at Hoddesdon, Hertfordshire, and died in Great Bardfield, Essex in 1929. After education at Bishop's Stortford College, he studied art at the Cardiff School of Art, the Lambeth, the Westminster, the Slade and then the Académies Julian and Colarossi in Paris.
