Rose ffrench, 1st Baronses ffrench (died 8 December 1805) was an Irish peeress.

The eldest daughter of Patrick Dillon of Roscommon, she married, 25 June 1761, Sir Charles ffrench, 1st Baronet (cr.1779), who was later Mayor of Galway. He died in 1784.

In 1798, Lady ffrench was created Baroness ffrench, of Castle ffrench, County Galway in recognition of the services of her son, Sir Thomas ffrench, 2nd Bt., who was a member of the Catholic Committee. Although she was nominally Protestant, the creation was in keeping with King George III's objection to promoting Catholics.

Upon her decease, her son Sir Thomas inherited the barony.
