Hugh Wood (22 March 1855 – 31 July 1941) was an English amateur first-class cricketer,[1] later a school teacher and Church of England priest.

Born in Ecclesall, Sheffield, Yorkshire, Wood was educated at Sheffield Collegiate School and Sidney Sussex College, Cambridge.[2] He was a slow left arm orthodox spinner and right-handed lower order batsman, who appeared in ten matches for Cambridge University in 1878 and 1879, and ten matches for Yorkshire in 1879 and 1880.[1] He also appeared for the Gentlemen of the North in 1879.

Wood took five wickets in an innings on five occasions, and ten wickets in a match once, taking 7 for 41 for Cambridge University against Surrey, and 7 for 46 against the Gentlemen of England. He finished his first-class career with the record of 67 wickets at 11.32 each, with a strike rate of 37.46 and an economy rate of 1.81 runs conceded per over. He proved less accomplished with the bat, top scoring with 36 for Yorkshire against I Zingari in the Scarborough Festival.

After leaving Cambridge, Wood taught at Wellington College for eight years, during which he was ordained as a Church of England priest. He was chaplain at Broadmoor Hospital 1893–1906, then vicar of Whitchurch, Buckinghamshire, from 1908 until his death there in 1941.[2]
