Introduction

Arthur Barnard Trollope (31 July 1836 – 22 April 1872) was an English cricketer.

Trollope was educated at Marlborough, Tonbridge and St John's College, Cambridge. He made his first-class debut for Cambridge University against the Cambridge Town and Country Club in 1856. Trollope made one further appearance for the University against the Cambridge Town Club in 1857.
