Richard Vinson Turner (born 6 April 1932 in Torquay, Devon) is a former English cricketer who played ten first-class games for Cambridge University as a batsman in the 1950s. He also appeared for Devon in the Minor Counties Championship.

By some distance Turner's highest score — he never otherwise even reached 30 — was the 113 not out he struck against MCC at Fenner's in June 1953; he shared in an unbroken stand of 196 for the fourth wicket with Raman Subba Row.[1] As of 2007 this remains Cambridge's highest partnership for that wicket against MCC.[2]
