[1] He was born at Berry Brow, Huddersfield, Yorkshire and died at Dudley, then in Worcestershire, now in West Midlands.
Having played in single match in 1900 and a few games in 1901, all without achieving any success, Moorhouse became a regular player for Warwickshire over the next six seasons.
Wisden Cricketers' Almanack noted his potential: "He must be reckoned one of the finest all-round players in Warwickshire," it wrote.
[2] That season saw his best bowling performance when he took seven second-innings Yorkshire wickets for 53 runs, and 11 for 114 in the match at Hull.
[5] With the recovery from injury of Frank Field and the emergence of Frank Foster in 1908, Moorhouse was unable to retain his place in the 1908 season and he left first-class cricket at the end of the season.
