Noble Glacier (62°4′S 58°26′W) is a small glacier lying just north of Flagstaff Glacier on the east side of Keller Peninsula, King George Island, in the South Shetland Islands. Named by the United Kingdom Antarctic Place-Names Committee (UK-APC) in 1960 for Hugh M. Noble of Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey (FIDS), glaciologist at Admiralty Bay in 1957, who made detailed studies of the regime of Flagstaff and Stenhouse Glacier.
