Francis Moore (18 July 1827 – 14 January 1900) was an English cricketer. Moore's batting style is unknown, though it is known he played as a wicket-keeper. He was born at Nottingham, Nottinghamshire.

Moore made a single first-class appearance for Nottinghamshire against Surrey at The Oval in 1862.[1] He ended Nottinghamshire's first-innings of 172 all out unbeaten on 8, while in Surrey's first-innings of 108 all out he stumped H. H. Stephenson off the bowling of Cris Tinley. Having batted at number eleven in Nottinghamshire's first-innings, Moore opened the batting in their second-innings, scoring an unbeaten 4 runs before the match was declared a draw.[2] This was his only major appearance for Nottinghamshire.

He died at the city of his birth on 14 January 1900.
