Do you know who he married?
There is this marriage

Arthur Charles Peters
Year of Registration: 1906
Quarter of Registration: Apr-May-Jun
District: Long Ashton
County: Somerset
Volume: 5c
Page: 1292

to either
Lily Dorothy Pearce or Mercy Amelia Pearce.

The other man on the page is Albert Weaver. I wonder if it was just coincidence that the two brides had the same surname, or if it was a double wedding

If it was one of these brides, then buying this certificate will give his fathers name

This is the only likely birth registration which I can see for him

Arthur Charles Peters
Year of Registration: 1875
Quarter of Registration: Oct-Nov-Dec
District: Clutton
County: Somerset
Volume: 5c
Page: 563

but you need his marriage certificate first to find out how old he was
