Edwin Ernest Barnett (26 September 1870 – ) was an English cricketer. Barnett's batting and bowling styles are unknown.[2]

Barnett was born in Leominster, Herefordshire, to surgeon Samuel Barnett MRCS JP and his wife, Mary Ann.[3][4]

Barnett made his only first-class appearance for the Marylebone Cricket Club in 1908 against Leicestershire at Lord's.[5] In this match he scored a single run in the MCC first-innings, before being dismissed by John King. In their second-innings he scored 70 runs before being dismissed by Ewart Astill.[6] Barnett played a single Minor Counties Championship match for Buckinghamshire against Berkshire in 1913.[7]

Below first-class level Barnett played, in a single county match, for Shropshire in 1899, scoring a century with 136 runs, and for Hertfordshire, and at club level for Hampstead and Richmond.[8]
