Sir Ambrose Nicholas ( - 1578) was the Lord Mayor of London in 1575. He was a salter by profession.[1][2]

In 2015 his body was confirmed as having been interred in a site which had been part of the Bedlam Hospital burial ground and which had been excavated as part of the development of Crossrail, under Liverpool Street station, London.[3]
