Henry Wall (20 April 1852 - 13 October 1914) was an English cricketer. Born at Wigan, Lancashire, he was a right-handed batsman and right-arm roundarm fast bowler who made three appearances in first-class cricket.
The son of Thomas Wall, the founder of the Wigan Observer,[1] Wall played the majority of his club cricket for Wigan (but did briefly play for Sefton Park in 1881),[2] with Wall making his first-class cricket debut for Lancashire in 1877 against Sussex at Old Trafford.[3] He made two further first-class appearances in 1877 for Lancashire, against Sussex at Hove and Kent at Maidstone.[3] He scored a total of 24 runs in his three matches, with a high score of 15.[4]
Local parish records indicate that he was by profession a mining engineer.[5] He died at Southport, Lancashire on 13 October 1914. His brothers, William and Thomas, both played first-class cricket.
