Silver Trophy for Competition

Amongst the effects of Bill Waterton was a rather fine and heavy silver trophy which was engraved with winners from 1946 to 1969. We do not know the achievement for which the cup was awarded. The name of the trophy is also unknown but we shall call it the Hutchings Trophy since that is the name of the engraved benefactor. The inscription reads:
