Stanley Ebden Horwood (22 July 1877 – 15 August 1959) was a Cape Colony cricketer who played first class cricket from 1899 to 1909.
Born in Port Elizabeth, Horwood was a middle-order batsman for Western Province. Despite a mediocre Currie Cup season in 1903–04, when he scored 65 runs at an average of 13.00,[1] he was selected to tour England in 1904 with the South African team. He was not successful there either, scoring 103 runs at 10.30 in nine first-class matches.[2] His best match was for Western Province against the touring MCC in 1905–06, when he scored 23 and 74.[3]
He married Anna Faure in 1914. They had a daughter and two sons.[4] Their son Owen became a professor of economics and a politician.
