Sir Patricius Curwen, 1st Baronet (c. 1602 – 15 December 1664) of Workington Hall, Cumberland was an English landowner and politician who sat in the House of Commons of England from 1640 to 1643 and from 1661 to 1664.
As a staunch Royalist he was one of the 56 MPs who voted to spare the life of the Earl of Strafford[3] and was disabled from sitting in March 1643.
[4] When the Civil War started he enlisted as a colonel in the Royalist army.
After the Restoration in 1661 Curwen was elected MP for Cumberland again in the Cavalier Parliament and held the seat until his death in 1664.
[5] Curwen's Workington estate therefore passed to his brother Thomas and the baronetcy became extinct.
