Sir Robert Lawley, 5th Baronet (c. 1736 – 11 March 1793) was an English landowner and politician who sat in the House of Commons from 1780 to 1793.
He rebuilt the house in grand Georgian style to a design by architect James Wyatt.
Despite this, he was not himself a Whig partisan but: had given the most incontrovertible indications of a sincere zeal in their cause, was unanimously selected as the voluntary object of their unbiassed preference...and at the county meeting, held a short time afterwards, he was named and accepted without any opposition.
His only two recorded speeches were on matters of constituency interest (on a bill to allow brass to be exported and supporting a petition of some iron manufacturers).
