Thomas Gardiner (fl. 1516), was a monk of Westminster.
Gardiner probably died before the dissolution of the monastery, as his name is not among the signatures of the deed of renunciation (1540). He wrote a chronicle of English history from Brutus to the seventh year of Henry VIII, entitled The Flowers of England, but the manuscript, which is among the Cotton MSS. (Otho C. vi.), has been so injured by fire as to be illegible.
