About Francis Hopwood, 1st Baron Southborough

Francis John Stephens Hopwood, 1st Baron Southborough, was a British civil servant and solicitor. Over the course of his official career, Hopwood served as permanent secretary to the Board of Trade and the Colonial Office, a member of the Board of Admiralty, and secretary to the Irish Convention. In addition, he served on numerous commissions and was sent by the British government to Scandinavia in 1917 to secretly investigate rumours of Austrian peace proposals.
