Some Famous People called Harry Cranfield
Harry Cranfield
Harold Richard Cranfield (25 December 1917 – December 1990) was an English professional footballer who played as a winger in the Football League for Fulham and Bristol Rovers.
Cranfield signed for Fulham in 1937, but had to wait nine years for his club debut, mostly due to the outbreak of World War II. After just one appearance in 1946, he moved to Bristol Rovers where after two goals and 25 consecutive appearances, injury led him to be released at the end of the season. Picked up by Colchester United in 1948, he made six appearances for the club before moving to King's Lynn.
