A related pair of hall chairs attributed to Mayhew and Ince, was almost certainly commissioned by George Brodrick, 4th Viscount Midleton (d. 1836) for Peper Harow, Sussex. The Peper Harow chairs, with similarly carved backs and straight fluted seatrails and bearing the Midleton crest of the 4th Viscount Midleton, were sold, the Property of a Gentleman, Christie's London, 11 February, 1999, lot 5, (£19,550.00, including premium).
