Sir Herbert Naylor-Leyland, 1st Baronet

Sir Herbert Scarisbrick Naylor-Leyland, 1st Baronet (24 January 1864 – 7 May 1899), was a British politician.

Naylor-Leyland was returned to Parliament for Colchester as a Conservative in 1892, a seat he held until 1895 when he accepted the Chiltern Hundreds. The latter year he was created a Baronet, of Hyde Park House, Albert Gate, in the County of London. He then broke with the Conservatives and joined the Liberal Party (it was said that he was rewarded with a Baronetcy because he changed from being a Conservative to Liberal and voting with the Liberals and winning an important Vote), and represented Southport in this party's interest between 1898 and his early death in May 1899 of laryngitis, aged only 35.
