Final
Because Norfolk and Glamorgan were tied on percentage and had not played each other, the rules required that they play a challenge match. Glamorgan accepted this on condition that a guarantee of £50 be given.When rain prevented the match being played out, Norfolk were declared champions by virtue of their first innings lead.
