This article is about teams prior to the 20th Century. For teams 1845-present, see Surrey County Cricket Club.
Surrey county cricket teams have been traced back to the 17th century, but Surrey's involvement in cricket goes back much further than that. The first definite mention of cricket anywhere in the world is dated c.1550 in Guildford.[1][2]
