The stanhope was a gig, buggy, or light phaeton, typically having a high seat for one person and closed back. It was named after Captain Hon. Henry FitzRoy Stanhope (ca. 1754–1828, son of William Stanhope, 2nd Earl of Harrington), a well-known sportsman of his time and built by the London firm of Tilbury, coach builders in Mount Street.[1][2][3] (see Tilbury (carriage))
