Thomas Foley (c. 1695 – 3 April 1749), of Stoke Edith, Herefordshire was a British landowner and Member of Parliament.


He was the eldest son of Thomas Foley (auditor of the imprests) and inherited the latter's estates on his death in 1737. He represented Hereford in Parliament from 1734 to 1741, and Herefordshire from 1742 to 1747.

He continued the family interest in ironmaking in the Forest of Dean, initially in partnership with his father. However, in his time leases were not renewed as they expired, and the business declined to being a shadow of what it once had been.

He married five times.
