Cadwalader Llewellyn was another cricketing cleric who made two appearances for Glamorganshire – one in 1866 and the other in 1869. He had been in residence at Queen’s College, Oxford during the 1850s and, through playing cricket, had become friends with several gentlemen who became prominent members of the South Wales Cricket Club and later the Glamorganshire club.
A batter of modest means, he was chosen in the Glmaorganshire side which met Carmarthenshire at Merthyr Mawr on 12 and 13 June 1866. Batting at number eleven he made just a single in his only innings. Three years later he played in the tied match with Radnorshire at Llandrindod Wells on 28 and 29 June 1869. Batting at number ten, he made 0* and 1.
He was the son of Rev. David Llewellyn, a Pembrokeshire-born vicar, with Cadwalader succeeding his late father as curate of Easton in Wiltshire before holding ministries in the London area.
