v Wales 17.03.13 (1 goal)
v Scotland 05.04.13 (1 goal)
v Wales 16.03.14

Outside Right Charlie Wallace made his England debut in the same match as Hampton.
Wallace made 3 international appearances, separated by the war:

Wallace spent 10 seasons at Villa, his 350 appearances bringing 57 goals. 18 of Wallace's goals came from the penalties, but he is better known for one he missed- in Villa's 1913 FA Cup Final win over Sunderland he shot wide from the spot.
