Ralph Louis Clutton (23 December 1902 – 29 September 1957) was an English first-class cricketer.

The son of Captain Ralph Philip Clutton, he was born at British Hong Kong in December 1902.[1] He was educated in England at Downside School.[2] He later played a single first-class cricket match for the Europeans cricket team in British India against the touring Marylebone Cricket Club at Karachi in October 1926.[3] Batting once in the match, he was dismissed without scoring by George Geary in the Europeans' only innings.[4] In addition to playing first-class cricket, Clutton also played minor counties cricket for Bedfordshire in 1923, making a single appearance in the Minor Counties Championship.[5] During the Second World War, Clutton was commissioned as a lieutenant in the Royal Artillery on 4 May 1940.[6] He died at St Leonards-on-Sea in September 1959.
