The Tony Lothian Prize, for the best proposal by a first time biographer, has been renamed the Elizabeth Buccleuch Prize.
The change follows the death last year of the Duchess of Buccleuch, who founded the prize in memory of her mother, Antonella (“Tony”) Lothian. The Duke of Buccleuch is continuing to support the £2,000 prize in his late wife’s memory.
The club will launch the 2024 prize in April.
