Herbert Blagrave (3 March 1899 – 4 July 1981) was an English cricketer. He was a slow bowler who played for Gloucestershire. He was born in Cheltenham and died in Wiltshire.

Blagrave made a single first-class appearance for the side, during the 1922 season, against Derbyshire. From the lower order, he scored a duck in the first innings in which he batted, and 12 runs in the second.

He died without an heir, so he founded the Herbert and Peter Blagrave Charitable Trust, with orders that the money should be spent on sick children, the elderly and injured jockeys.
