Alfred Vaughan Patton K.B.E. - 3rd Apr 2014 3:27pm
There's a monument dedicated to him on Caldy Hill. Does anybody know much about him ?
Born in 1861 (Sheffield?), died in 1930 (Wirral).
He was seemingly involved in the cotton industry.

Sir Alfred Paton, an Old Boy of the school, bequeathed to The National Trust 20 acres land bordering Thurstaston Common with a proviso to the bequest stating that this area was to be available to the Rugby Club to use as a playing area in perpetuity. So Paton Field came into existence.
