Samuel Roberts (c. 1720 - June 1800) was a Welsh Clockmaker based in Llanfair Caereinion, Montgomeryshire (now Powys) in Mid-Wales. From an early stage in his career all his clocks were engraved with a serial number and date; in addition his account books have survived, providing valuable evidence of the craft and business of Welsh provincial clockmakers of the period.
