The Rt Hon. Henry Maxwell, 7th Baron Farnham, K.P. (9 August 1799 – 20 August 1868), was an Irish peer and Member of Parliament.

Lord Farnham was the son of The 6th Baron Farnham and Lady Anne Butler. He was elected to the House of Commons for County Cavan in 1824, a seat he continued to represent until 1838. The latter year he succeeded his father as seventh Baron, inheriting the Farnham Estate, and subsequently served as an Irish Representative Peer from 1839 to 1868. He was made a Knight of St. Patrick in 1845.

Lord Farnham married Anna Stapleton, daughter of Thomas Stapleton, 16th Baron le Despencer, on 3 December 1828. The couple had no children. Lord and Lady Farnham were killed in the Abergele train disaster of 1868. After his death, a statue in his honour was erected in Cavan, allegedly 'by his tenants'. The statue now sits in front of the relatively new Johnston Central Library on Farnham Street in the town.

The Farnham family crest reads Je suis pret (I am ready).

He was succeeded by his younger brother Somerset Richard Maxwell.
