'''Daniel Finch, 2nd Earl of Nottingham, 7th Earl of Winchilsea''', [[Privy Council of England|PC]] (2 July 1647{{snd}}1 January 1730) was an English [[Hanoverian Tory|Tory]] politician and peer who supported the [[Hanoverian Succession]] in 1714. Known as '''Lord Nottingham''' until 1729, then as '''Lord Winchilsea'''.

==Origins==
Finch was born in [[London]] on 2 July 1647, the son of [[Heneage Finch, 1st Earl of Nottingham]] (1620-1682), [[Lord Chancellor]] of England, by his wife Elizabeth Harvey, a daughter of Daniel Harvey.<ref>Henry Horwitz, ''Revolution Politicks. The Career of Daniel Finch, Second Earl of Nottingham, 1647–1730'' (Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1968), p. 2.</ref><ref name=":0">{{Cite encyclopedia |title=Finch, Daniel, second earl of Nottingham and seventh earl of Winchilsea (1647–1730), politician. |encyclopedia=Oxford Dictionary of National Biography |url=https://www.oxforddnb.com/view/10.1093/ref:odnb/9780198614128.001.0001/odnb-9780198614128-e-9427 |access-date=23 September 2025 |last=Horwitz |first=H. |date=8 January 2009}}</ref> His great grandmother was [[Elizabeth Finch, 1st Countess of Winchilsea]].

One of his brothers was [[Heneage Finch, 1st Earl of Aylesford]].<ref name=":0" />

==Education==
Little is known about his upbringing. He entered [[Westminster School]] in 1658, where he boarded for three years at the house of Dr. [[Richard Busby]], the headmaster and his father's former tutor at [[Christ Church, Oxford]]. Daniel also went to Christ Church and the excellence of his studies made his father doubt their authenticity. He matriculated at Christ Church as a Gentleman Commoner on 26 July 1662.<ref>Horwitz, pp. 2–3.</ref>

In April 1663, his father wrote to him, advising that he "loose not the reputation which I am told you have gayn'd of diligence and sobriety".<ref>Horwitz, p. 3.</ref> His father also advised him a month after he had arrived in Oxford "to frequent the publique prayers, and study to reverence and defend, as well as to obey, the Church of England" and when his first Easter away from home was approaching, he wrote, "Nothing can make you truly wise but such a religion as dwells upon your heart and governs your whole life". However, Finch suffered from illness and it may be due to this that he left Oxford without graduating.<ref>Horwitz, p. 4.</ref>

Finch went on his [[Grand Tour]] from 1665 to 1668, visiting [[Frankfurt]], Munich, [[Venice]], [[Florence]], [[Naples]], Rome and Paris.<ref>Horwitz, pp. 4–5.</ref> After he returned to England he was appointed a Fellow of the [[Royal Society]] and his cousin Sir [[Roger Twysden]] wrote to Finch's father that "every body speaks him a very gentleman, and one you and your lady are likely to have much comfort in".<ref>Horwitz, p. 6.</ref>

Later in 1689, he sold Nottingham House in Kensington to King William and Queen [[Mary II of England|Mary]] for £20,000, the house was then expanded by [[Christopher Wren]] into [[Kensington Palace]].<ref>{{Cite web |last=Whitfield |first=David |date=2018-05-21 |title=Story behind the name of Nottingham Cottage |url=https://www.nottinghampost.com/news/local-news/nottingham-cottage-prince-harry-meghan-837542 |access-date=2023-12-17 |website=Nottinghamshire Live |language=en}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |date=2023-09-27 |title=The history-making Kensington Palace and the admired attraction it is today |url=https://royalcentral.co.uk/interests/residences/the-history-making-kensington-palace-and-the-admired-attraction-it-is-today-192336/ |access-date=2023-12-17 |website=Royal Central |language=en-GB}}</ref>

==Career==
[[Image:Daniel Finch, 2nd Earl of Nottingham and 7th Earl of Winchilsea by Sir Godfrey Kneller, Bt.jpg|thumb|Daniel Finch, 2nd Earl of Nottingham, portrait by Sir Godfrey Kneller, ''c''. 1720]]
Daniel Finch entered parliament for [[Lichfield (UK Parliament constituency)|Lichfield]] in 1679. In 1682 he succeeded his father as [[Earl of Nottingham]].<ref name=":0" /> He was one of the privy councillors who in 1685 signed the order for the proclamation of the Duke of York, but during the whole of the reign of [[James II of England|James II]], he kept away from the court. At the last moment, he hesitated to join in the invitation to [[William III of England|William of Orange]] and after the flight of James II, he was the leader of the party who were in favour of James being King in name and William being regent.{{sfn|Chisholm|1911|p=825}} He was author of the [[Toleration Act 1688|Act of Toleration of 1688]].<ref name=":0" />

He declined the office of [[Lord Chancellor]] under William and [[Mary II of England|Mary]], but accepted that of [[Secretary of State for the Northern Department|Secretary of State]], retaining it until December 1693.<ref name=":0" /> Under Queen [[Anne, Queen of Great Britain|Anne]] in 1702, he again accepted the same office in the ministry of [[Sidney Godolphin, 1st Earl of Godolphin|Lord Godolphin]], but finally retired in 1704.{{sfn|Chisholm|1911|p=825}}

In 1711, during the [[War of the Spanish Succession]], the Tory ministry of [[Robert Harley, 1st Earl of Oxford]] was attempting to negotiate peace with France. On 7 December Finch moved the '[[No peace without Spain]]' amendment to the vote of thanks, which condemned any peace with France that left Spain and the West Indies in possession of a member of the [[House of Bourbon]]. Finch spoke for one hour and declared that "though he had fourteen children, he would submit to live upon five hundred pounds a year rather than consent to those dark and unknown conditions of peace".<ref>Horwitz, p. 232.</ref>
[[File:Burley on the Hill House from Stamford Road - geograph.org.uk - 4826087.jpg|thumb|[[Burley House]] viewed from Stamford Road.]]
Nottingham built [[Burley House]] in Rutland, he was to a large extent his own architect and involved himself in the minutiae of its construction, before embarking on the project, Lord Nottingham consulted Sir [[Christopher Wren]], but instead employed Henry Dormer (died 1727) just to supervise its building. It was completed in 1705, the main block stretches 200 feet long across 15 windows. He and his large family had moved in prior its completion.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Burley House, Burley on the Hill |url=https://www.lrgt.org/places/burley-on-the-hill/ |access-date=2023-10-17 |website=Leicestershire and Rutland Gardens Trust |language=en-GB}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |last=Howlett |first=Sue |title=Burley on the hill |url=https://www.rutlandhistory.org/HRW/chapter-004}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |last=Record |first=Rutland |title=Heritage on the hill |url=https://www.rutlandhistory.org/rutlandrecord/rr10.pdf}}</ref>[[File:Burley on the hill house, Rutland Earl of Winchilsea (cropped 1).jpg|thumb|The Earl of Nottingham Finch's coat of arms was put on the top arch of the house.]]On the accession of King [[George I of Great Britain|George I]] he was made [[Lord President of the Council]] but in 1716 he finally withdrew from office. On 9 September 1729, he succeeded to the title [[Earl of Winchilsea]] after his 2nd cousin [[John Finch, 6th Earl of Winchilsea]] died unmarried. Nottingham was reluctant to receive the superior title due to his own familial pride with the Nottingham title, so he combined the title (henceforth became united with his paternal title of Earl of Nottingham). He died on 1 January 1730 Burley.{{sfn|Chisholm|1911|p=825}}

[[Image:Daniel Finch, 2nd Earl of Nottingham.jpg|thumb|upright|''Daniel Finch, 2nd Earl of Nottingham'', 1747, by [[Jacobus Houbraken]]]]
The [[Whig history|Whig historian]] [[Thomas Babington Macaulay, 1st Baron Macaulay|Lord Macaulay]] said of Lord Nottingham in 1848:<ref>Thomas Babington Macaulay, ''The History of England from the Accession of James the Second. Popular Edition in Two Volumes. Volume I'' (London: Longmans, 1889), p. 449.</ref>
<blockquote>This son, Earl Daniel, was an honourable and virtuous man. Though enslaved by some absurd prejudices, and though liable to strange fits of caprice, he cannot be accused of having deviated from the path of right in search either of unlawful gain or of unlawful pleasure. Like his father he was a distinguished speaker, impressive, but prolix, and too monotonously solemn. The person of the orator was in perfect harmony with his oratory. His attitude was rigidly erect: his complexion so dark that he might have passed for a native of a warmer climate than ours; and his harsh features were composed to an expression resembling that of a chief mourner at a funeral. It was commonly said that he looked rather like a Spanish grandee than like an English gentleman. The nicknames of Dismal, Don Dismallo, and Don Diego, were fastened on him by jesters, and are not yet forgotten. He had paid much attention to the science by which his family had been raised to greatness, and was, for a man born to rank and wealth, wonderfully well read in the laws of his country. He was a devoted son of the Church, and showed his respect for her in two ways not usual among those Lords who in his time boasted that they were her especial friends, by writing tracts in defence of her dogmas, and by shaping his private life according to her precepts. Like other zealous churchmen, he had, till recently, been a strenuous supporter of monarchical authority. But to the policy which had been pursued since the suppression of the [[Monmouth Rebellion|Western insurrection]] he was bitterly hostile, and not the less so because his younger brother Heneage had been turned out of the office of Solicitor General for refusing to defend the King's dispensing power.</blockquote>
