James Gillespie Graham (1776 – 1855) was a Scottish architect, born in Dunblane. He is most notable for his work in the Scottish Gothic style (sometimes called Scottish baronial). His work was heavily influenced by that of Augustus Pugin. Graham designed principally country houses and churches. He is also well known for his interior design, his most noted work in this respect being that at Taymouth Castle and Hopetoun House.

His principal works include St. Mary's Roman Catholic Cathedral, the Highland Tolbooth Church in Edinburgh (now The Hub), Cambusnethan House or Priory and St. Andrew's Roman Catholic Cathedral in Glasgow. He was also responsible for the "Lands of Drumsheugh" which become part of Edinburgh's New Town.
