Most centuries in English club cricket by an overseas batsman is thought to be 142 by Ceylonese Joe Misso. Main clubs were Teddington Town, Great Western Railway, Turnham Green and Brentham. Misso scored another 168 hundreds in Ceylon, making 310 in total, which is a record for all cricket. Last hundred was in 1978.
CB "Bertie" Clarke, the West Indian leg-spinner (3 Tests), took 380 wickets in 1955, mainly for BBC.
A couple of notable all-round seasonal feats:
Aubrey Faulkner: 2868 runs and 218 wickets in 1914 for Notts Commercial and other clubs in the area.
Syed Nazir Ali: 2900 runs and 210 wickets in 1930 for Indian Gymkhana.
Four overseas players have achieved the double in a Lancashire League season: Cec Pepper, Vijay Hazare, Colin Miller and Chris Harris.
Highest career batting average in the Lancashire League is 91.60 by Everton Weekes (9069 runs). Most wickets in this league by an overseas player is 967 by Charlie Llewellyn.

that's pretty much the same as it is up here. But one or two teams are sometimes taking on OAs rather than Pros. Cheaper I guess, although the accomodation and travel costs etc. still incurred.
