		Houghton Hall in Norfolk was left to him by his grandmother, the Dowager Marchioness, at her death in January 1990, and Cholmondeley Castle, the 9,000-acre family seat in Cheshire, came to him two months later when his father, the Fifth Marquess of Cholmondeley, died.

		Caption: Christie's has won a case at the Court of Appeal in London against a ruling that it was negligent to catalogue these two vases as 'Louis XV'.

		The key appeal decision is that an auction house need not qualify a lot description with the word 'probably' as long as the evidence that might raise such a doubt has been dismissed after sensible evaluation.
