Granville Augustus William Waldegrave, 3rd Baron Radstock (10 April 1833, London – 8 December 1913, Paris) [1] was a British missionary and a Peer of Ireland.

He became the 3rd Baron Radstock on the death of his father Granville George Waldegrave in 1857. Radstock married Susan Charlotte Calcraft on 16 July 1858 in Trinity Church, Marylebone.[2] In 1889, they acquired the Mayfield estate in Weston, Southampton.[3]

He was widowed on 8 December 1892.[1]

Radstock is perhaps best known for his work as a missionary during the Great Russian Awakening.[4] In 1873 he travelled to St Petersburg as part of his missionary work.
