Samuel Pepys Cockerell (1754 - 1827) was an English architect and an employee of the East India Company. [Tour UK [http://www.touruk.co.uk/houses/Sezincote-Gloucestershire.htm Historic Houses In Gloucestershire] Retrieved on 20 august, 2007] He was a great-great nephew of the diarist Samuel Pepys.

Cockerell designed the architecture of much of the Bayswater area of London, including Sussex Gardens, and also Admiralty House, and designed a new tower for St Anne's Church, Soho in 1803. Among country houses, he designed Sezincote House, Gloucestershire (for his brother Sir Charles Cockerell, 1st Baronet), Daylesford, Gloucestershire for Warren Hastings, and Middleton Hall (now the home of the National Botanic Garden of Wales).

Cockerell's pupils included the architect Benjamin Henry Latrobe (1764 - 1820), who emigrated to the United States in 1795 and worked on the White House and the United States Capitol. His son, Charles Robert Cockerell, also went on to become a famous architect.
