Reginald Walkelyne Chandos-Pole JP (4 February 1853 – 20 October 1930) was an English landowner who served as High Sheriff of Derbyshire.
Chandos-Pole was born at Dalbury Lees, South Derbyshire, Derbyshire on 4 February 1853.[1] He was the eldest son of Edward Sacheverell Chandos-Pole (1826–1873), and Lady Anna Caroline Stanhope (1832–1914). Among his ten siblings were Carolina Chandos-Pole (who married Lord Claud John Hamilton, a son of the 1st Duke of Abercorn),[2] and Alianore Chandos-Pole (who married Capt. Sir Wroth Lethbridge, 5th Baronet, and, after their divorce, her first cousin, Hon. Walter Yarde-Buller).[3]
His paternal grandparents were Edward Sacheverell Chandos-Pole and Anna Maria Wilmot.[4] His paternal uncle, Henry Chandos Pole Gell, took the arms and additional surname "Gell" when he succeeded to the estate at Hopton Hall.[5][6] His aunt, Charlotte Chandos-Pole, married Hon. John Yarde-Buller (a son of the 1st Baron Churston),[7] and other aunt, Eleanor Chandos-Pole, married Vice-Admiral Henry Bagot (a son of Rt. Rev. Hon. Richard Bagot).[2] His maternal grandparents were Leicester Stanhope, 5th Earl of Harrington and the former Elizabeth Williams Green.[8]
He was educated at Eton College from 1862 to 1869, where he played cricket.[9]

In 1871, he joined the Grenadier Guards before retiring in 1878. He then served as Honorary Colonel of the Derbyshire Yeomanry.[9]
He was a Justice of the Peace for Derbyshire.[10] Upon his father's death in 1873, he inherited the family property of Radbourne Hall.[10][11][12] Like his father and grandfather before him, he served as High Sheriff of Derbyshire in 1905.[13]
