This card comes from the Minor Counties Research Project
Hertfordshire completed their victory on the second day. During the season Arnold of Worcestershire and Thompson of Northamptonshire were also to repeat the feat. Norfolk played just four Championship matches - home and away against Hertfordshire and Worcestershire - and did not qualify for the Competition Table.
