John Cust, 1st Earl Brownlow, GCH (19 August 1779 – 15 September 1853) was a British Peer and Tory politician.
Cust was the eldest son of the 1st Baron Brownlow and his second wife, Frances. In 1802, he was elected as MP for Clitheroe and held the seat until he succeeded to his father's title in 1807. From 1809-52, he was Lord Lieutenant of Lincolnshire and was created Earl Brownlow in 1815 and awarded the GCH in 1834.
