William Chatterton (born 27 December 1861 in Thornsett, Derbyshire, England; died 19 March 1913 in Flowery Field, Hyde, Cheshire, England) was a cricketer who played first-class cricket for Derbyshire County Cricket Club between 1882 and 1902. He almost single-handedly was responsible for Derbyshire regaining first-class status. In 1891-92 Chatterton toured South Africa. Although it was a winter in which two England sides toured (the other one to Australia), but later the representative games there were raised to Test match status, which meant that Chatterton played one Test match.

Chatterton died of consumption in 1913.
