The Douton Scholarship was established in 1934 by the Will of the late Mrs A.H.M. Douton, widow of Revd. G.W. Douton (KC 1872), with a gift of £1,161. The will was explicit in creating a trust, the income of which was to provide an entrance or senior scholarship or exhibition in Classics.
Revised in 2020, this award is now a graduate studentship to support MPhil students in Classics.
