With their fan-shaped backs, the present hall chairs are designed in the George III ‘Roman’ fashion introduced in the late 1770s and popularized by Hepplewhite & Co’s publication The Cabinet-Maker and Upholsterers Guide, 1788. The overall form is found on a set of armorial chairs dating from the 1770s and attributed to the leading Soho firm of Mayhew & Ince, sold Christie's, Chirk Castle sale, 21 June 2004, lot 54. A further set with related medallion backs was commissioned in the mid-1770s by George Brodrick, 4th Viscount Midleton (d. 1836) for his entrance hall at Pepper Harrow, Sussex. A pair of hall chairs with the same pierced oval backs and possibly from the same set was sold anonymously Christie’s, New York, 17 October 2003, lot 273 ($8,962.50 including premium).
