Nathan Peter Lowndes (born 2 June 1977 in Salford, Greater Manchester) is an English professional football player. He is a striker.

Lowndes began his career with Leeds United in 1994 but didn't make any first-team appearances in his fourteen months at Elland Road. In 1995 he was signed by Watford for a fee of £40,000. In three years with Watford, he only made seven league appearances and was unable to score.

In 1998, he joined Scottish club St. Johnstone, who were in their second season back in the Premier League. In his first season in Perth, he helped Saints to a third-place finish, which qualified them for the following season's UEFA Cup, an appearance in the League Cup final and the last four of the Scottish Cup. He was the club's top scorer in 1999–2000 with ten goals. In his four years at McDiarmid Park Lowndes made 63 appearances and scored fourteen goals.

In May 2001, Lowndes signed for Livingston, for whom he made 21 appearances and scored three goals. In March 2002 he returned to England with Plymouth Argyle, then managed by Paul Sturrock, who had signed him to St. Johnstone four years earlier. In two years with Plymouth, Lowndes made 53 appearances and scored ten goals.

He joined Port Vale, in November 2004, and was released in May 2007. He subsequently joined League Two side Chester, who are managed by Bobby Williamson, Lowndes's manager at Plymouth for a short time. On 11 August 2007 he made his league debut in a 0–0 draw against Chesterfield. In January 2008 he was the subject of interest from Conference side Torquay United.[1]

The move did not go through but Lowndes did not play again for Chester due to injury and on 23 April 2008 his contract was cancelled by mutual consent.[2]
