About
Robert Hindley Wilkinson (1811 – 5 February 1888) was an English cricketer with amateur status who was active from 1828 to 1831. He was born in London and died in Hitchin, Hertfordshire. He attended Eton College and was cricket captain there in 1828. He made his first-class debut in 1831 and appeared in one match as an unknown handedness batsman whose bowling style is unknown, playing for Cambridge University. He scored 51 runs with a highest score of 37 and took no wickets. Lt. Col. Robert Hindley Wilkinson was Lord of the Manor of Gravely through his wife Caroline Obert and the landlord of a house named alternatively Rooksnest; Chesfield Villa or Howards which was tenanted between 1883-1893 by the author E M Forster and his mother. A description of that property and of Wilkinson as a landlord appears in the appendix of some copies of Howards End, to which novel the house gave its name.)
