Thomas Hinderwell (1744–1825) was a British, eighteenth-century historian.
He is probably best remembered for his History of Scarborough, which was first published in York in 1798.
Fellow antiquarian John Bigland described it as "one of the most accurate and interesting works relating to this or any other part of England".
[1][2] After his death, his collection of books, manuscripts, pictures, and fossils formed the basis of Scarborough's Rotunda Museum,[3] one of the oldest purpose-built museums still in use in the United Kingdom.
