George Bridges Brudenell

He succeeded his father in 1746 and was equerry to King George II from 1746 to 1760.

[2] Brudenell's political career was effectively run by Lord Exeter.

When King George III came to the throne in 1760, he was offered the renewal of his place as equerry, but did not press to take it.

He was appointed clerk comptroller of the Household in July 1765 and held the post until 1768.

He was appointed Clerk of the Green Cloth in 1768 and held the post until it was abolished in March 1782.
