Dorothy Greenhough-Smith (1882-1965) was a British figure skater.
She was the daughter of James Edward Preston Muddock, and married Herbert Greenhough Smith[1] in 1900.
She won the bronze medal at the 1908 Summer Olympics, the first Olympics where figure skating was contested. She was the 1912 World silver medalist, which was the first silver medal in ladies skating for Great Britain (Madge Syers having won the silver in men's singles). She never competed at the European Figure Skating Championships because the ladies event was not added to the program until 1930.
