Samuel Burleigh Gabriel (died 1866) was a Victorian architect who practised in Bristol.[1] For a number of years he was in partnership with another architect called John Hicks, who later worked at Dorchester.[2] Their offices were at 28 Corn Street, Bristol.[1]

Gabriel designed parish churches for the Church of England and houses for private clients.

One of Gabriel's last commissions was Ashley House in Bristol for Sir Charles Wathen.[3] Wathen served as Mayor of Bristol and contributed to the building of several of its public buildings.[3] In 2008 there was a proposal to demolish Ashley House.[3] SAVE Britain's Heritage responded by supporting a campaign for the building's retention.[3]
