Arthur Thomas Lloyd (13 December 1844 – 29 May 1907[1]) was an Anglican bishop.

Lloyd was educated at Magdalen School and St Edmund Hall, Oxford.[2] Ordained in 1869[3], his first post was as a curate at Cholsey from where he moved to become vicar of Aylesbury.[4] After some time as the vicar of Newcastle upon Tyne and Provost of Newcastle Cathedral, he was appointed to be the first modern[5] suffragan Bishop of Thetford (with the additional position of archdeacon of Lynn [6]) in 1894. In 1903 he was translated to become the Bishop of Newcastle but died four years later.
