Henry Lindsay was an Irish international rugby union player.

Born in Armagh, Lindsay played for Dublin University and was a versatile forward, sometimes utilised as a three-quarter on account of his speed.[1] He was capped 13 times for Ireland from 1893 to 1898, which included all three matches of their 1894 Home Nations triple crown, as well as another championship win in 1896.[2]

Lindsay served for a brief period as headmaster of Cookstown Academy.[3]
