Henry Victor Angel Holderness (24 May 1889 – 17 July 1974) was a New Zealand cricketer who played for Otago. He was born and died in Dunedin.

Holderness made a single first-class appearance, during the 1918-19 season, against Southland. Opening the bowling for Otago, he took 5 for 10 and 5 for 29 as he and Arthur Alloo bowled unchanged through the match to dismiss Southland for 41 and 55. Otago won the match by a comfortable margin despite scoring only 94 and 88.[1]

He was wounded in 1915 while serving as a gunner with the New Zealand forces in World War I.[2]
