The Watkin Baronetcy, of Northenden in the County Palatine of Chester (now Cheshire), was a title in the Baronetage of the United Kingdom. It was created on 12 May 1880 for the railway magnate and politician Sir Edward William Watkin. He was succeeded by his son, Alfred Mellor Watkin, the second Baronet, who sat as Liberal Member of Parliament for Great Grimsby. The title became extinct on the second Baronet's death in 1914.
