Harold Mead (13 June 1895 − 13 April 1921) was an English cricketer. Mead was a right-handed batsman who bowled slow left-arm orthodox. He was born at Walthamstow, Essex.
Mead made his first-class debut for Essex against Derbyshire in the 1913 County Championship. He made three further first-class appearances for the county, the last of which came against Sussex in the 1914 County Championship.[1]
