A Telford Field was the commodore of The Royal Corrinthian Yacht Club at this time and there is a drawing of the Telford Field Challenge Cup by William Lionel Wyllie in the archives (PAE 2531) of the National Maritime Museum.
The census return of 1881 shows Telford Field an engineer aged 47 living at 59 Caslow Gardens in Kensington with a butler and 2 domestic staff.
