Cyril Alec "Bob" Stiles (10 October 1904 – 5 March 1985) was a New Zealand rower. He won a silver medal at the 1932 Summer Olympics in Los Angeles in the coxless pairs with partner Rangi Thompson.[1] He also won a bronze medal at the 1938 British Empire Games in Sydney in the eights.[1]

Stiles Place, a Christchurch street, is named after Stiles. The street runs off Arnst Place, named after Richard Arnst, another New Zealand rower. Both are near a part of the Avon River used by rowers, locally known as Kerr's Reach.
