Arthur Barton (30 September 1874 – 19 January 1949) was an English cricketer who played first-class cricket for Derbyshire in 1901.
Barton was born in Ilkeston, Derbyshire, the son of William Barton, coalminer and grocer and his wife Ann.[1] He played three games for Derbyshire during the 1901 season – playing in his first game against Nottinghamshire during July 1901, and playing in his last game just a week later. Barton struggled during his debut match, and was dropped down the order for his next, where he stayed for his final game.
Barton was a right-handed batsman and played six innings in his three first-class games to make a total of 24 runs. He bowled 84 balls, but did not take a wicket.[2]
Barton died in Ealing aged 75.
