The Orleans Club was a London-based cricket club that existed from 1878 to 1888 and took part in four first-class matches.[1] It was founded by C. I. Thornton who had organised occasional teams to play on the Orleans Club Ground at Orleans Road, Twickenham, both the club and ground taking the name of the address.[2]
