Henry Trevor Roll (18 March 1905 – 25 May 1967) was a Scottish cricketer. Roll was a right-handed batsman who bowled right-arm medium pace. He was born at Alloa, Clackmannanshire.

Roll made a single first-class appearance for Warwickshire against the touring New Zealanders at Edgbaston in 1927.[1] Roll was dismissed in Warwickshire's first-innings for a duck by Roger Blunt, while in their second-innings he wasn't required to bat. He also bowled nine wicketless overs in the New Zealanders first-innings, with the outcome of the match ending in a draw.[2] This was his only major appearance for Warwickshire.

He died at Downend, Gloucestershire on 25 May 1967. His grandson Lawson Roll played a single first-class match for Gloucestershire in 1984.
