Charles Stewart QC was a barrister and independent politician in Northern Ireland.

Stewart was elected for the Queen's University of Belfast at the Northern Ireland general election, 1958. Independent politician Eileen M. Hickey, known for her Irish nationalist sympathies, had chosen not to contest the election.

Stewart retained his seat at the 1962 general election and was returned unopposed in 1965. He resigned in October 1966.

Following his resignation, Stewart was active as a magistrate into the 1970s and had been appointed Chief Justice of the Cameroons.
