Charles Kenward (7 September 1877 – 14 November 1948) was an English first-class cricketer.

Kenward was born at Icklesham Manor House in the village of Icklesham, Sussex to Trayton Kenward and his wife Emily Turtle. His father was a farmer of over 1,000 acres (4.0 km2).[1] Kenward made a single appearance in first-class cricket for the Gentlemen of England against Oxford University at Oxford in 1905.[2] Batting twice during the match, Kenward was dismissed for 43 runs by Robin Udal in the Gentlemen of England first-innings, while in their second-innings he was dismissed by Francis Henley for 4 runs.[3]

He was later a Land Tax Commissioner for the county of Sussex in 1938.[4] He died at Rye, Sussex in November 1948. His brother, Richard Kenward, was also a first-class cricketer.
