Edmund Harold Sedding (1863 – 21 February 1921), often referred to as E. H. Sedding, was an English architect who practised in Devon and Cornwall.

He was born in 1863 in Pimlico,[1][2] London, the son of Edmund Sedding and the nephew of J. D. Sedding. He was articled to his uncle, and initially employed by him, later setting up his own independent practice in Plymouth in 1891. His awards included the RA medal in 1884, the RIBA medal the following year, the RA Travelling Fellowship in 1886, and the Pugin medal in 1887. His published work includes Norman architecture in Cornwall (1909).

He died in Plymouth on 21 February 1921 and is buried in the graveyard of St Carantoc Church, Crantock, Cornwall.[3]
