Sir John Farrer, 1st Baronet (c. 1640–1715), was an English landowner and politician. He was created a baronet in 1677, a title that recognized his status and contributions. Farrer served as a Member of Parliament for Lichfield and was involved in local governance, reflecting the political landscape of England during the late 17th century. Farrer was known for his extensive landholdings, particularly in Staffordshire. His family played a significant role in the region, and his baronetcy was passed down through generations. His legacy includes contributions to both local politics and the development of his estate.
