Henry Stopes (1852, Colchester – 1902, Greenhithe) was a brewer, architect and amateur paleontologist of repute in late 19th century London. He amassed the largest private collection of fossils and lithic artefacts in Britain. He was the husband of Shakespearean scholar and feminist, Charlotte Carmichael Stopes, and father of Marie Stopes, the birth control advocate. Stopes was the first Briton to claim to have found Palaeolithic implements in the Thames river valley
"Henry Stopes (1852–1902): engineer, brewer and anthropologist".
'Kenwyn', Cintra Park, Upper Norwood was Stopes's first London home to which she was brought by train from Edinburgh in December 1880. This handsome double-fronted house was given the number 8 in 1890, and survives, little altered, as the present 28 Cintra Park. It was here that Marie and her younger sister Winnie were home educated by their mother. Marie Stopes recalled being 'brought up in the rigours of the stern Scottish old-fashioned Presbyterianism … special books were kept for Sunday reading; no toys were allowed'
The family owned the Eagle Brewery, Colchester, Essex.
Interested in flint tools of which he gave a huge collection to the National Museum of Wales. His wife was the literary scholar, Charlotte Brown Carmichael, and their daughter was Marie Stopes, doctor and birth control advocate
