Vere Fane, 14th Earl of Westmorland

Lieutenant-Commander Vere Anthony Francis Fane, 14th Earl of Westmorland (25 March 1893 – 12 May 1948), styled Lord Burghersh until 1922, was a British peer.

He served in the Royal Navy during the First World War and was present at the Battle of Jutland aboard Lion, Lord Beatty's flagship.

[1] Noted as a "sporting peer", he succeeded his father in the earldom in 1922, when he began his association with horse racing.

He retired from training in 1931 but continued his sporting interests, which included hunting, boxing, shooting, and in his later years golf; he was also on the board of Arsenal Football Club.

Lord Westmorland married the Honourable Diana, daughter of Thomas Lister, 4th Baron Ribblesdale, and widow of both Percy Lyulph Wyndham (son of George Wyndham and half-brother of Hugh Grosvenor, 2nd Duke of Westminster) and Arthur Capel, in 1923.
