Thomas Dutton

Sir Thomas Dutton (1 August 1421 – 23 September 1459) was a medieval English knight. He was the son of Sir John Dutton and Margaret Savage.

His family owned an estate, Dutton Hall in Cheshire. The original building is now located in West Sussex, having been moved there in the 1930s; the building housed Stoke Brunswick School, at Ashurst Wood, south of East Grinstead.

Sir Thomas Dutton, his brother John, his eldest son Peter Dutton, and his father-in-law Lord Audley all died on 23 September 1459 at the Battle of Blore Heath, during the War of the Roses. Lord Audley was in command of approximately 10,000 troops defending the throne of King Henry VI. Provided by Wikipedia
