Henry Fownes Luttrell (7 February 1790 – 6 October 1867)[1] was an English lawyer and Tory politician from Dunster Castle in Somerset.
He was educated at Eton and at Brasenose College, Oxford, and called to the bar at the Middle Temple in 1813.
The seat was a pocket borough which had been dominated since the 16th century by the Luttrell family, who owned the feudal barony of Dunster.
[2] The Fownes Luttrell brothers were re-elected unopposed in 1818 and 1820,[2] but Henry resigned his seat in 1822 to become a Commissioner of the Board of Audit.
They covered more than 15,000 acres (6,100 ha), and at the time yielded an income of over £20,000 per annum[1] (equivalent to £2.41 million in 2025[3]).
