Richard Vaughan Barnewall (1779/1780 – 29 January 1842) was an English lawyer and law reporter.
He was the fourth son of Robert, a London merchant reputedly descended from fifteenth century Irish chief justice Sir Nicholas Barnewall, and Sophia, daughter of Captain Silvester Barnewall, himself uncle to Robert Barnewall. The Baronies of Trimlestown and Kingsland were held by various members of his family.
Barnewall was a lifelong Roman Catholic, educated at Stonyhurst College and the University of Edinburgh. A pupil of Richard Blick, a notable special pleader, Barnewall was called to the bar at the Inner Temple in 1806. He began his practice on the home circuit and at the Surrey quarter sessions.
Barnewall is best remembered as a careful and accurate reporter of the King's Bench, particularly in association with:
Edward Hall Alderson, (1817–1822);
Sir Cresswell Cresswell, (1822–1830); and
John Leycester Adolphus, (1830–1834).
Barnewell retired in 1834, having inherited property from the baroness de Montesquieu. He died at his chambers at 13 King's Bench Walk, never having married, being buried in Paddington churchyard.
