Sir Henry Beyer Robertson (4 May 1862 – 2 June 1948) was a British industrialist.
Beyer was one of the leading locomotive designers of his day and co-founder of one of the world's largest and most famous independent locomotive manufacturers, Beyer, Peacock & Company, based in Gorton, Manchester.
He successfully negotiated a contract to supply steel to Rolls-Royce, for aero engine production, during Britain's rearming in response to Germany's growing military build up in the late 1930s.
[5] His father had rescued the original Brymbo Ironworks (founded by John Wilkinson) in the 1840s, and introduce steel-making in the 1880s.
His father had died in 1888, just prior to Queen Victoria's visit to Palé Hall in 1889, and it fell to Henry Beyer Robertson to play host.
