Henry Robert Clutterbuck (22 November 1809 – 18 December 1883) was an English cleric, and a cricketer who represented Oxford University.[1] A batsman of unknown handedness who was born in Great Stanmore, Middlesex, Clutterbuck made one appearance for the University when facing the Marylebone Cricket Club in July 1832 at Lord's.[2] He batted at number 10, scoring one before being dismissed by William Lillywhite, followed by a duck in the second innings. The MCC were victorious by four wickets.[3] He died in Bath, Somerset in 1883.[1]

Clutterbuck was educated at Harrow School and Peterhouse, Cambridge, where he graduated B.A. in 1831. He became a Church of England priest and was vicar of Kempston, Bedfordshire, 1835–46 and of Buckland Dinham, Somerset, 1848–83.[4] He did not study at Oxford, although the University awarded him an ad eundem degree in 1858.[5]
