Sir Charles Frederick KB (21 December 1709 – 18 December 1785) was a British Member of Parliament.
He was a younger son of Sir Thomas Frederick, sometime Governor of Fort St David, and a younger brother of Sir John Frederick, 4th Baronet.
He was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society in May 1733. Frederick was Member of Parliament for New Shoreham from 1741 to 1754 and for Queenborough from 1754 to 1784. He was made a Knight Companion of the Order of the Bath in 1761. He was briefly Father of the House from June 1784.
Sir Charles Frederick also served as Clerk of the Deliveries and then Surveyor-General of the Ordnance. In 1782 however, he and his son were both removed from the Board of Ordnance by the then Master-General of the Ordnance, Charles Lennox, 3rd Duke of Richmond. His son, who was Architect of the Ordnance, was succeeded by James Wyatt who went on to build both the Royal Artillery Barracks and the Royal Military Academy, Woolwich.
On 18 August 1746 he married Lucy, daughter of the first Viscount Falmouth, by whom he had issue. His great-grandson Charles Edward later succeeded to the family title as seventh Baronet.
Frederick Place in Woolwich is named after Sir Charles Frederick.
