  Alfred Edward Sephton - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Alfred Edward Sephton was an English recipient of the Victoria Cross, the highest and most prestigious award for gallantry in the face of the enemy that can be awarded to British and Commonwealth forces.
On 18 May 1941 in the Mediterranean, south of Crete, Petty Officer Sephton was a director layer on HMS Coventry when she went to the assistance of a hospital ship which was being attacked by German dive-bombers.
The medal was stolen from Coventry Cathedral in 1990.

As a result of the machine gunning however, Petty Officer Sephton was fatally wounded by a bullet which penetrated the director, passed though his body, and wounded A.B. Fisher who was communication number in the director.
Sephton knew that owing to the cramped space in the director and the difficulty of access he could not be relieved until the end of the action.
It is considered that Petty Officer Sephton's heroism in carrying on, and his fine example to Fisher may well have saved “Coventry” and “Aba” who were both attacked after Sephton had been wounded, the attacking aircraft being effectively repelled by “Coventry's” gunfire.

 Aylesford, Kent
This place, by the Britons, was called Saissenaig-hobail, in commemoration of their having here defeated the Saxons; and by the latter, after their settlement in the country, Eaglesford, of which the present name is a corruption: in the battle above mentioned, which took place in 455, Horsa, the brother of Hengist, was slain.
In 893, Alfred defeated the Danes at Fenham in this parish, and, in 1016, Edmund Ironside, in a fierce encounter with those invaders, pursued them to this place with great slaughter, and drove them hence to Sheppey.
The town is pleasantly situated on the north-east bank of the river Medway, over which is a neat modern stone-bridge of six arches; it consists of one principal street, on the east side of which the ground rises abruptly to an elevation of one hundred feet.
