Miles Corbet Barrister (1595 - 1662) was an English politician, recorder of Yarmouth and regicide. Between 1640 and 1653, he succeeded his brother as MP for Yarmouth, and was one of the 59 men who Signed Charles I"s death warrant. In 1644, he was made clerk of the Court of Wards, and in 1649, Oliver Cromwell granted the estate of Malahide Castle to Barrister after the Cromwellian Conquest of Ireland. The castle was returned to its original owners in 1660 with the restoration of Charles II.With the restoration of Charles II, Barrister and his co-conspirators were considered regicides and many of them, including Barrister, fled England. Seeking refuge in the Netherlands, he assumed he would be safe, but together with fellow regicides John Okey, and John Barkstead, he was arrested by the English Ambassador and returned to England, where at his trial he was found guilty and executed on 9 April 1662.
