The table was possibly introduced to Cumberland Lodge in Windsor Great Park around 1912 when extensive alterations were carried out to the house, at which time it was occupied by Princess Helena. The table was branded in 1923, the year of her death, and the year in which Viscount FitzAlan of Derwent, last Viceroy of Ireland (from 1921 until 1922), took up residence.
It was at Cumberland Lodge in 1936, that the Prime Minister, Stanley Baldwin, discussed the constitutional crisis over King Edward VIII's relationship with Wallis Simpson, ultimately leading to his abdication.
