The Kimber Baronetcy, of Lansdowne Lodge in Wandsworth in the County of London, is a title in the Baronetage of the United Kingdom. It was created on 24 August 1904 for Henry Kimber. He was the founder of the legal firm of Kimber and Ellis and also sat as Conservative Member of Parliament for Wandsworth between 1885 and 1913.
