Thomas Wyndham (of Clearwell Park)

Thomas Wyndham (c. 1686 – 12 December 1752) of Clearwell Court, Gloucestershire, Dunraven Castle, Glamorgan, and Cromer, Norfolk, was a British lawyer and politician who sat in the House of Commons from 1721 to 1734.

[3] In 1727, he built Clearwell Court to the designs of Roger Morris,[4] and replaced an older house which occupied the same site.

However, when Walpole did not make him a Lord of the Admiralty, he went into opposition and spoke against the Government in the civil list arrears debate on 24 April 1729.

[3] Walpole is said to have offered him a commissionership of customs to get him out of the House of Commons but when he found it was in Scotland he refused to accept.

He served on an inquiry into the frauds in the Charitable Corporation, carrying a motion for committing Sir Archibald Grant into the custody of the serjeant at arms.
