The MCC were victorious by four wickets.[3] He died in Bath, Somerset in 1883.
Clutterbuck was educated at Harrow School and Peterhouse, Cambridge, where he graduated B.A. in 1831. He became a Church of England priest and was vicar of Kempston, Bedfordshire, 1835–46 and of Buckland Dinham, Somerset, 1848–83.
