William Angus (3 December 1841 – 6 July 1912) was a British Liberal Party activist. Born at Matfen High House, near Corbridge in Northumberland, Angus was educated privately, and at Croft House in Brampton, Carlisle. He later ran a carriage building company in Newcastle-upon-Tyne. He argued that the novelty of the motor car would wear away, and horse-drawn carriages would increase in popularity, particularly for leisure use.
