Charles Penfold Ingram (24 April 1833 – 20 August 1868) was an English doctor of medicine and a cricketer who played first-class cricket for Cambridge University in 1854 and 1859.[1] The son of Hugh Ingram (1790-1863), a surgeon, and his wife Mary Bostock (1796-1879), he was born at Steyning in Sussex and died there as well.[2]

Ingram played as a lower order batsman and bowler for Cambridge against the Marylebone Cricket Club (MCC) in June 1854, scoring 14 and 10 and taking a single wicket; after this, he was picked for the 1854 University match against Oxford University where he played as an opening batsman, scoring 4 and 2, and did not bowl.[1] He reappeared for Cambridge in a single game in London against MCC in 1859, at which time he was working as a doctor at St Bartholomew's Hospital.
