John Larkin (cricketer)
John Larkin was a noted English cricketer of the mid-Georgian period at a time when the single wicket version of the game was popular.
He played for "the most famed parish of Hadlow", as the Hadlow Cricket Club was called in 1747, when he must have been one of its best players. Larkin and another Hadlow player called Jones represented All-England v Kent at the Artillery Ground on 31 August 1747.
John Larkin seems to have had a lengthy career and was still playing club cricket in the 1770s.
