Ridgeway Pitt, 3rd Earl of Londonderry

Ridgeway Pitt, 3rd Earl of Londonderry (1722 – 1765) of Soldon[1] in the parish of Holsworthy in North Devon, was a British politician and peer.

His older brother, Thomas Pitt, 2nd Earl of Londonderry (1717-1734), died in a riding accident in 1734, when Ridgeway succeeded to his titles.

As his title was in the Peerage of Ireland, he was not barred from election to the House of Commons of Great Britain and sat as a Member of Parliament for the rotten borough of Camelford in Cornwall between 1747 and 1754.
