Walter Edward Mills was an English architect.

Mills was articled to the architect Henry Edward Cooper of Bloomsbury in 1868.[1] He established his own independent practice in Banbury, Oxfordshire in about 1875,[3] where by 1881 he had premises at 13, High Street.[1]

Mills served as architectural clerk to the agent for the Clifden Estates,[1] for whom he completed Holdenby House in 1878.[2] Mills designed a number of public buildings in mixed styles, usually neo-Jacobean.[4] His extension of the Oxford Union was completed posthumously.

Mills was elected an Associate of the Royal Institute of British Architects (ARIBA) in 1882.[1]
