Maurice Charles Langdon (born 12 October 1934 in Wanganui), is a former New Zealand cricketer who played 25 first-class matches for Northern Districts, mostly in the Plunket Shield.
Langdon at one time held the record for best bowling in an innings by a Northern Districts player in first-class cricket. Against Auckland in January 1964, he claimed 8/21. This surpassed Gren Alabaster's mark of 8/30 of less than a year before, and stood until Alex Tait took 9/48 — also against Auckland — in February 1997.
