Hertford Cricket Club is an English amateur cricket club, located in Hertford, the county town of Hertfordshire. Cricket records for a Hertford club go back a far as 1825, however the club in its present form has been in existence since 1860.

In 2009 the club was relegated from the Home Counties Premier Cricket League, an accredited ECB Premier League, the highest level for recreational club cricket in England and Wales.
