Arthur Dolphin (born 24 December 1885 in Wilsden, Yorkshire, England; died 23 October 1942 in Lilycroft, Heaton, Bradford, Yorkshire, England) was a cricketer, who kept wicket for Yorkshire County Cricket Club between 1905 and 1927. He also played first-class cricket for the Marylebone Cricket Club. His one Test match came in 1920-21 in the Fourth Test against Australia.

After retiring as a player, Dolphin became a cricket umpire and officiated in six Tests. He was noted for never wearing a hat, not even on the hottest summer days.
