Henry Brooke (January 1671 – 14 July 1761)[1] was an Irish politician.

He was the son of Thomas Brooke, grandson of Sir Basil Brooke, 1st Baronet, and his wife Catherine Cole, daughter of Sir John Cole, 1st Baronet.[2] In 1709, he was appointed High Sheriff of Fermanagh and Governor of County Fermanagh.[2] Between 1713 and 1727, he sat for Dundalk in the Irish House of Commons.[1] Subsequently, he was returned for County Fermanagh until his death in 1761.[1]

On 29 March 1711, he married Lettice Burton, daughter of Benjamin Burton.[2] They had four daughters and two sons.[3] His oldest son Arthur represented Fermanagh and Maryborough and was later created a baronet.[4]
