Charles Bindley (1795/6–1859) was a British sporting writer, who concentrated on horses and field sports, particularly hunting and stable management. He became known under his pseudonym, Harry Hieover.
On his own account, Bindley's background included a fox-hunting father, service in Ireland, and sojourns mainly in Leicestershire and Lincolnshire.

He died there on 10 February 1859, aged 63. [2]
