Sir William Eley Cuthbert Quilter, 2nd Baronet (17 July 1873 – 18 September 1952)[1] was an English Conservative Party politician.

Quilter was the son of the Liberal politician Sir William Quilter, 1st Baronet (1841–1911).

He was commissioned a second-lieutenant of the Suffolk Yeomanry (The Duke of York´s Own Loyal Suffolk Hussars) on 26 March 1902.[2]

He was elected at the January 1910 general election as Member of Parliament (MP) for Sudbury in Suffolk,[3] a constituency held by his father until 1906. He held the seat until the 1918 general election, when he did not stand again.[4]
