Alfred Bigwood (3 August 1857 – 12 September 1940) was an English cricketer. Bigwood was a right-handed batsman who bowled roundarm slow, though which he arm he bowled with is also unknown. He was born at Mortlake, Surrey.

Bigwood made a single first-class appearance for Surrey against Middlesex in 1878 at Lord's.[1] Middlesex won the toss and elected to bat, making 105 all out. Surrey responded in their first-innings by making 84 all out, with Bigwood for 4 runs by Robert Henderson. Middlesex then made 167 all out in their second-innings, leaving Surrey with a target of 189 for victory. However, Surrey could only manage to make 75 all out, with Bigwood ending the innings not out on a single run. Middlesex won the match by 113 runs.[2] This was his only major appearance for Surrey.

He died at Putney, London, on 12 September 1940.
