Brigadier General William Denman Croft & Three Bars (15 March 1879 – 14 July 1968) was a British Army officer. He served as a brigadier general in the British Army in the First World War, and afterwards in India. He was one of seven British officers to be awarded the DSO four times in the First World War.

He joined the 4th battalion of the The King's (Shropshire Light Infantry) as a second lieutenant in February 1898,〔https://www.thegazette.co.uk/London/issue/26941/page/1121〕 and was promoted to the rank of lieutenant in June 1899.〔https://www.thegazette.co.uk/London/issue/27093/page/4008〕 He transferred to the Cameronians (Scottish Rifles) in 1900 to replace an officer killed in the Second Boer War.〔https://www.thegazette.co.uk/London/issue/27171/page/1527〕 He was seconded to the Colonial Office in 1903,〔https://www.thegazette.co.uk/London/issue/27598/page/5787〕 and served in Nigeria, where he is reputed to have been wounded by a poisoned arrow in 1907.
