Richard Lowe (18 June 1869 – 3 July 1946) was an English cricketer. Lowe was a right-handed batsman who bowled left-arm medium pace. He was born at Kirkby-in-Ashfield in Nottinghamshire.

Lowe made his first-class cricket debut for Lord Sheffield's XI against the Marylebone Cricket Club at Sheffield Park in 1891.[1] His next first-class appearance came in his debut match for Sussex in the 1893 County Championship against Nottinghamshire at Trent Bridge. He made thirteen further first-class appearances for the county, the last of which came against Surrey in the 1894 County Championship.[1]

He later joined Glamorgan, making his debut for the Welsh county against Monmouthshire in the 1897 Minor Counties Championship. He played minor counties cricket for Glamorgan from 1897 to 1901, making a total of 42 appearances, the last of which came against Devon.[2] In addition to playing county cricket, he also played for Rishton in 1895 and Church in 1896 in the Lancashire League.[3] He died at the town of his birth on 3 July 1946. His brothers, Sam and Tom, both played first-class cricket.
