Richard Arden-Davis (31 January 1855 – 29 June 1917) was an English first-class cricketer with Middlesex, and Anglican clergyman.

Arden-Davis was born at Malins Lee, Shropshire in 1855. He played cricket for Suffolk from 1877 until 1882, his match for Middlesex in 1881 was his only first-class appearance. The 1881 Census shows him as being resident at Woodland House School, Woodland Road, Edmonton, Middlesex, and described as a School Assistant (Music).[1]

He eventually went into the Church, and was curate of St. John′s, Worcester until August 1902, when he was appointed vicar of Clevedon, Somerset.[2]
