John Humphrey Arnott Pakington, 7th Baron Hampton, Baron Hampton of Newington Green (born 24 December 1964), is a British hereditary peer and a member of the House of Lords who sits as a crossbencher.

Hampton became a member of the House in October 2022, being elected in a crossbench hereditary peers' by-election.[1] In May 2026, it was announced that he was to be given one of 26 new life peerages, returning him to the House of Lords after the coming into force of the House of Lords (Hereditary Peers) Act 2026.[2]

He lives in Hackney, London, and has previously worked as a photographer, and Head of Department in a local state school.[3]
