Thomas Farrington (died 1758) of Chislehurst, Kent, was a British politician who sat in the House of Commons between 1727 and 1754.

Farrington was the only son of Lt.-Gen. Thomas Farrington MP of Chislehurst and his wife Theodosia Betenson, daughter of Richard Betenson.

He succeeded his father in 1712.

He was appointed auditor of the land revenues for Wales in 1733 and although he was re-elected at the required by-election in 1733, he was defeated at the 1734 general election. He next stood for parliament in 1747 when returned for Ludgershall on the interest of his cousin John Selwyn. He voted for the Administration in all recorded occasions. He did not stand in 1754.

Farrington died unmarried on 29 January 1758.
