Provenance
Probably Charles William Vane, 3rd Marquess of Londonderry (1778-1854) and by descent at Wynyard Park, County Durham.
Literature
Probably, Seaham Hall inventory, 1854, dining room, ‘a set of mahogany dining tables, two circular ends, on pillars and claws and two flaps, 15 ft. long 4 ft. 6” wide, & three square ditto’ (the width conforms with this table, which was previously fitted with folding flaps, and the Seaham table is described with an additional section which would account for the difference in length).

Wynyard Park inventory, 1965, vol. i, p. 16, dining room.
