Henry Sproatt (June 14, 1866- October 4, 1934) was a Canadian architect in the early 20th Century.
Born in Toronto, he trained in Europe and in New York. He formed a partnership with another celebrated architect, John A. Pearson in 1890 and with Frank Darling in 1893. Sproatt parted ways in 1896 and formed a new firm in 1899 with Ernest Ross Rolph, Sproatt & Rolph.
He was a fellow of the Royal Institute of British Architects. He died in Toronto in 1934, and the firm continued under his son Charles Beverley Sproatt until 1970.
