An 18th century oak cricket table, the patinated plank top with undertier on three tapering legs 67 x 70cm (26 x 27in) These three-legged tables with a circular top originated in the 17th century and although an earlier form of the game of cricket existed at this time, it is unlikely the table is named after the game. Far more likely is that it is a derivation of the word from the early 17th century for a three-legged stool, known as a “crackett”. Like the stool, the three-legged table was comparatively steadier on uneven ground and stone flag floors in the taverns, inns and cottages, although its use outdoors, to hold your beer whilst batting, has also been noted.

Literature: An almost identical writing table in the manner of John McLean. Lot 130. Christie's, London, Important English Furniture Thursday 9th July 1998, another Lot 70. Christie's April 2001 and Lot 102 Sotheby's 4th July 1997. According to The Pictorial Dictionary of Marked London Furniture, 1700 - 1840, (Christopher Gilbert), the eminent firm of cabinet-makers and "upholders" (sic) - John McLean & Son - was founded by a "Jn McLane" from premises near Leicester Square in 1770. Remaining based in London, the firm produced fine cabinets and desks in the "French taste" influenced by the style of Louis XVI, using cast and metal mounts. Of the highest calibre, the firm was instructed by leading connoisseurs such as the 5th Earl of Jersey to provide furniture for his house at Middleton Park, Oxfordshire and for his London mansion in Berkeley Square. Mentioned in Thomas Sheraton's "Cabinet Dictionary" of 1803 - "Mr Mclean in Mary-le-bone Street… who finishes these small articles in the neatest manner" - he consistently displayed a delicate design, often inspired by French prototypes and the frequent use of dark wood as a foil to the chased gilt brass mounts or inlay. As a result of this, many unlabelled pieces can be safely attributed to John McLean.

The eldest son and heir of the Dukes of Newcastle has the courtesy title of Earl of Lincoln. The 4th Duke's son born in 1811, Henry Pelham Fiennes Pelham-Clinton, had the title of Earl of Lincoln until he succeeded his father as 5th Duke in 1851. He died in 1864. With thanks to Chloe Cockerill for her help with heraldry. The table is thought to have later painted.
