Henry Poley (5 January 1654 – 7 August 1707) was an English lawyer and Member of Parliament. He was the son of Sir Edmund Poley (1619–1671) who was MP for Bury St Edmunds, and brother of Edmund Poley the diplomat.

Poley matriculated at Jesus College, Cambridge in 1672, and graduated B.A. in 1673, having been a fellow commoner since 1670. He was then a Fellow of the college to 1675. He entered Gray's Inn in 1669, and the Middle Temple in 1672, being called to the bar in 1678.

He represented Eye between 1689 and 1695, West Looe between 1703 and 1705, and Ipswich from 1705 until his death in 1707.

On 5 March 1707, Poley was reported to be "dangerously ill". He died on 7 August, aged 54, and was buried at Badley.
