John Berney Ladbrooke (1803 – 11 July 1879) was an English landscape painter who was associated with the Norwich School of painters.

John Berney Ladbrooke was one of four sons of the painter Robert Ladbrooke, all of whom were artists to varying degrees, with Henry and John Berney achieving the most success.[1][2]

Ladbrooke, the third son, was born in 1803. He became a pupil of John Crome, who was his uncle by marriage, and whose manner he followed. Ladbrooke excelled in the representation of woodland scenery. He exhibited at the Royal Academy in 1821 and 1822, and frequently at the British Institution and the Suffolk Street Gallery up to 1873.[2] In 1820 he published a series of eight lithographs entitled Select Views in Norwich and its Environs.[3]

He died at Mousehold, Norwich, on 11 July 1879.[2]
