Edwin Kirk (6 May 1866 – 8 April 1957) was an English cricketer. Kirk was a right-handed batsman. He was born at Coventry, Warwickshire.

Nelson made a single first-class appearance for Warwickshire against Derbyshire in the 1898 County Championship at Edgbaston.[1] Derbyshire won the toss and elected to bat first, making 266 all out, to which Warwickshire responded to in their first-innings by making 485/8 declared, during which Kirk was dismissed for a duck by Joseph Hancock. Derbyshire then reached 161/3 in their second-innings, at which point the match was declared a draw.[2] This was his only major appearance for Warwickshire.

He died at the city of his birth on 8 April 1957.
