Captain Edward Kinder Bradbury VC (16 August 1881 – 1 September 1914) was an English recipient of the Victoria Cross, the highest and most prestigious award for gallantry in the face of the enemy that can be awarded to British and Commonwealth forces.

Born in August 1881, in Altrincham, Cheshire, he was the son of James Kinder Bradbury and Grace Dowling.

[8] In early 1905 he was seconded to duties with the Foreign Office,[9] during which time he appears to have served with the King's African Rifles.

On 1 September 1914 at Néry, France, during a fierce attack by the enemy, when all the officers of 'L' Battery were either killed or wounded, Captain Bradbury along with Sergeant Major Dorrell and Sergeant Nelson, continued the lone resistance against the German attack.

Although having had one leg taken off by a shell while fetching ammunition, Bradbury continued to direct the fire of the battery until he died.
