Edmund Bastard (1758–1816) of Sharpham, Ashprington, Devon, was a British Tory politician. He was the second son of Colonel William Bastard of Kitley House, Yealmpton, Devon by his wife Anne Worsley.

He was Member of Parliament (MP) for Dartmouth from 1787 to 1812. In 1787, he was elected unopposed, after in August 1787 George Rose recommended him to William Pitt. In the Parliament, only two speeches of him are recorded, on 26 and 28 May 1788, on a bill to regulate fishery in Newfoundland. This was related with the position of Darthmouth as one of the main ports of the Newfoundland trade.

On 1 July 1783 Bastard married Jane Pownoll (died 1822), daughter and heiress of Captain Philemon Pownoll (died 1780), Royal Navy, the builder of Sharpham House, by whom he had children including his eldest son and heir, Edmund Pollexfen Bastard (1784–1838), who succeeded John Pollexfen Bastard as MP for Devonshire; and second son, Captain John Bastard (died 1835), Royal Navy, of Sharpham, who succeeded his father as member for Dartmouth. Bastard died in June 1816.
