Philip Speakman Webb (12 January, 1831 - 17 April 1915) was an English architect - sometimes called The Father of Arts and Crafts Architecture.

Born in Oxford, Webb studied at Aynho in Northamptonshire and was then articled to a firm of builder-architects in Reading, Berkshire. He then moved to London where he eventually became a junior assistant for G. E. Street. While there he met William Morris in 1856 and then started his own practice in 1858.

He is particularly noted as the designer of The Red House at Bexleyheath, south-east London in 1859 and - towards the end of his career - the house Standen (near East Grinstead in West Sussex), both with William Morris. These were among several works in his favoured niche: country houses.

William Morris, Edward Burne-Jones, and Dante Gabriel Rossetti were three of his fellow partners in the interior decorating and furnishing business, Morris, Marshall, Faulkner & Co.

Webb and Morris formed an important part of the Arts and Crafts movement, and founded the Society for the Protection of Ancient Buildings in 1877.
