Denbighshire County Cricket Club

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Denbighshire County Cricket Club was a cricket club that played in the Minor Counties championship for five seasons from 1930 to 1935 (missing the 1932 season). The side was notably unsuccessful, and in its final season it lost each of its eight matches, six of them by an innings. It finished bottom of the championship table in each of its seasons.

After 1935, the side disbanded, and although it threatened at the time (see Wisden Cricketers' Almanack, 1936 edition) to form a Gentlemen of Denbighshire team for eventual readmission to the Minor Counties, that did not happen.

Many of the games were played at the Marchwiel country estate.
