William Cunnington (1754–31 December, 1810) was a pioneering English antiquarian and archaeologist of the late eighteenth and early nineteenth century. His work centred on excavating the barrows of Salisbury Plain. Along with fellow excavationist Richard Colt Hoare, Cunnington was the subject of an exhibition at the Wiltshire Heritage Museum in 2003. The museum is the keeper of documentation made by Cunnington at the time of his work.
