Cutting, Carleton & Cutting was an American architectural firm, with offices in Worcester, Massachusetts, active from 1895 to 1932.

It was established in 1895 by Amos P. Cutting, Elbridge S. Carleton, and Frank H. Cutting, son of Amos.^[1] The elder Cutting established the firm while he was in ill health, so that he could step back from active office work. He died in February of 1896,^[2] but Carleton and Cutting continued the firm until Carleton's death in 1932.^[3] Cutting continued on alone.

The firm of Cutting, Carleton & Cutting is associated with the design of at least four properties individually placed on the National Register of Historic Places, and its works contribute to several more listed historic districts.
