The Hamilton junior then teamed up with brother Peter to take the 18 and under mixed title with a straight sets win over Connor Glennon and Emelia Bakewell.
Thorpe just missed out on her fourth title when she and Gina Kothari went down in straight sets to Rebecca Scrivens and Katie Boulter in the 18 and under doubles.
Ryan Parmar added another title to the club's tally when he teamed up with Chris Egan-Morris to take the 12 and under doubles in two straight sets.
