Augustus Orlebar (14 June 1824 – 30 September 1912) was an English first-class cricketer and clergyman.

The son of Robert Charles Orlebar, he was born in June 1824 at Husborne Crawley, Bedfordshire.

[1] He was educated at Rugby School,[2] where he is considered to have been a candidate for the basis of the character Tom Brown in Thomas Hughes' Tom Brown's School Days,[3] though Hughes' brother, George, seems a more plausible candidate.

[6] After graduating from Oxford, Orlebar took holy orders in the Church of England.

He was appointed rector of Farndish in Bedfordshire from 1852 to 1858, before serving as vicar of Willington from 1858 until his death there in September 1912.
