Robert Carberry (born 6 January 1931) was a Scottish footballer who played as a half-back in the Football League for Norwich City, Gillingham, and Port Vale between 1953 and 1958.

Carberry played for Avondale, before joining Norwich City in 1953, who were then managed by Norman Low. He made five Third Division South appearances in 1953–54 and 1954–55 before departing Carrow Road. After spending 1955–56 in the Southern League with Bedford Town, he signed with Archie Clark's Gillingham, and featured once in the Third Division South in the 1956–57 season. He joined league rivals Port Vale in July 1957, in a move that reunited him with Norman Low, and his debut came at centre-half in a 1–0 away triumph at Aldershot on 24 August. He enjoyed regular football from that game until he lost his place in February 1958. He transferred to Exeter City in August 1958, having made 32 league and cup appearances for the "Valiants" in 1957–58. He did not play in the Fourth Division for the "Grecians", but instead moved back to the Southern League with Burton Albion.
