Archibald Bell (January 1 1773 – 23 April 1837) was an English-born Australian politician.

He was born at Cheshunt in Hertfordshire to Nonconformist minister Archibald Bell. He married Maria Kitching in 1794; they had ten children. He was a schoolmaster for a time and in 1806 enlisted in the New South Wales Corps, arriving in Sydney in 1807. In New South Wales he was a magistrate and lieutenant, and settled near Richmond. From 1832 to 1837 he was a member of the New South Wales Legislative Council. One of his sons, Archibald, was also a New South Wales politician. Bell died at Richmond in 1837.[1]
