Email from Stephen: the grid ref is very wrong. I think it is meant to be ST 467 350, at the Walton Hill NT car park.
No Answer available at the time, as the Question was incorrect. It should be "South of the village of Walton at Walton Hill is a National Trust car park. Adjacent is a topograph of the surrounding area. In whose memory was it provided?". In this case, the answer is Thompson and Esther Clothier of Street
