James Gordon Stewart (7 August 1927 — December 1980) was a South African footballer who played as an inside forward.
In October 1951, Stewart travelled to England to sign for Leeds United from South African club Parkhill, after impressing for South Africa during a Wolverhampton Wanderers tour of the country. In just over a year at the club, Stewart made 11 first team appearances during his time at Leeds, scoring twice. In 1953, Stewart returned to his native South Africa.[1]
