In their second-innings, he claimed the wicket of Louis Bookman for the cost of 34 runs from 13 overs. With the bat, he was dismissed for 5 in Wales only innings by Gustavus Kelly.[2] Lockwood later made his debut for Denbighshire in the 1930 Minor Counties Championship against Cheshire. He made a further five Minor Counties Championship appearances for the county, the last of which came against Lincolnshire in 1933.[3]
