Master of the Buckhounds
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Master of the Buckhounds was an officer in the Master of the Horse's department of the British Royal Household. The holder was also His/Her Majesty's Representative at Ascot. It was a political office, so the holder, who was always a nobleman, altered with every ministry. The office was abolished by the Civil List Act 1901.
