Alfred William Parvin (31 December 1859 — 12 July 1916) was an English first-class cricketer.

Parvin was born in Southampton in December 1859. He successfully undertook an apprenticeship in 1876 to become a second assistant master at a boy's school in Southampton.[1] Parvin later made a single appearance in first-class cricket for Hampshire in a single first-class match against Kent at Tonbridge in 1885.[2] Batting twice in the match, he was dismissed without scoring by Jimmy Wootton in Hampshire's first innings, while following-on in their second innings he was dismissed for 11 runs by the same bowler.[3] In November 1885, he was elected a fellow of the Royal Geographical Society.[4] Parvin died in Brighton in July 1916.
