Henry Peirson Harland (1 September 1876–11 August 1945) was a unionist politician in Northern Ireland.

Born in Uxbridge, Harland studied at Rugby School before being appointed as a director or Harland and Wolff, and of Short and Harland. He worked as an engineer worldwide before winning the Belfast East by-election, 1940 for the Ulster Unionist Party. Despite holding a seat in Northern Ireland, he lived in Aldenham, Hertfordshire. He died shortly before the 1945 UK general election.[1]
