Edward Basil Farnham (19 April 1799 – 13 May 1879)[1][2] was a British Conservative politician.

Farnham was the son of Edward Farnham and Harriet, daughter of Dr. Rhudde.[3] He married Gertrude Emily Cradock-Hartopp, daughter of Sir William Edmund Cradock-Hartopp, 3rd Baronet and Jane Mary née Keane, in 1851. They had at least one child, William Edward John Basil Farnham. Farnham lived at Quarndon House in Leicestershire.[2]

One of the first MPs to support Benjamin Disraeli for leader of the Conservatives,[4] Farnham was first elected Conservative MP for North Leicestershire at the 1837 general election and held the seat until 1859 when he did not stand for re-election.[5]

Outside of politics, Farnham was a Justice of the Peace and a Deputy Lieutenant for Leicestershire,[2] as well as, in 1870, High Sheriff of Leicestershire. He was also a major in the Leicestershire Yeomanry Cavalry.[4]
