Joseph Richardson (1830 – 25 September 1902)[1] was a Liberal Party politician in England.

[3] Richardson was five times Mayor of the borough of Stockton-on-Tees, including on his death in 1902.

He was defeated at the 1895 general election by the Liberal Unionist Sir Henry Havelock-Allan, who he had ousted in 1892.

Havelock-Allan died in 1897, and Richardson won the resulting by-election in 1898, but lost his seat again at the 1900 general election.
