Clark Rampling (bapt 6 April 1793 – buried 7 March 1875) was an English architect who worked from offices in London and from about 1820 in Birkenhead, Cheshire (now in Merseyside). By 1841 he was joined in partnership in Birkenhead by his nephew Robert Bushell Rampling and the practice was known as C. and R. B. Rampling.

This building is recorded in the National Heritage List for England as a designated Grade II* listed building. Earlier, he had designed the Church of St Mary, Birch, a Commissioners' church in Gothic Revival style, (c. 1827/28) which has since been demolished. Other works in Cheshire and Lancashire include
