Samuel Driver was a nurseryman and landscape gardener active in England, particularly in Gloucestershire and Middlesex, in the 18th century. He was the father of Abraham and Willam Driver, both surveyors.
Driver died in December 1779. After his death his two sons transformed his London nursery site, located on Old Kent Road, into one suitable for building.
