Peter Hepburn

Derek Peter Hepburn was a Scottish international rugby union player.
Born in London, Hepburn was educated at Eastbourne College and served as an Army major in World War II.
Hepburn began playing rugby for Essex club Woodford as a teenager before the war, where he remained through his career, despite offers from more high-profile teams. He made his Scotland debut as a stand-off in their loss to the Wallabies in 1947 and contributed a drop goal. His next four caps, in the 1948 Five Nations, were also as a stand-off, forming a partnership with Dallas Allardice. He was switched to centre for his four 1949 Five Nations matches.
