Montague William Hayter (16 November 1871 — 6 May 1948) was an English first-class cricketer.

The son of Meshach William Hayter and Mary Jane Eaton, he was born in November 1871 at Ringwood, Hampshire. Hayter made his debut in first-class cricket for Hampshire against Leicestershire at Leicester in the 1904 County Championship;[1] he was one of seven consecutive Hampshire debutants in 1904, in what was a weak Hampshire side which would finish last in the County Championship.[2] Hayter made six further first-class appearances for Hampshire in 1904, which included playing against the touring South Africans at Alton.[1] In his seven first-class matches, Hayter scored 166 runs at an average of 13.83;[3] he made one half century, a score of 82 against Derbyshire.[2]

Outside of cricket, he was the head keeper of the Royalty Fishery in Christchurch Harbour from 1909 to 1946.[4] Hayter died at Christchurch in May 1948.
