Shane Hugh Maryon Gough, 5th Viscount Gough (26 August 1941 – 14 April 2023), was a British hereditary peer. He was educated at Winchester College and Sandhurst. He was the son of Hugh Gough, 4th Viscount Gough, and Margaretta Elizabeth Maryon-Wilson. Lord Gough resided at the family seat, Keppoch House, near Dingwall, Scotland, but also had a London residence. His employment was in London. He was unmarried, and there was no heir to the peerage or baronetcy.
Gough was educated at Abberley Hall School and Winchester College.[1] He served as an officer in the Irish Guards (Household Division, British Army),[2] following in family tradition. Although he followed his father into the Guards, his most famous military forebear is undoubtedly Field Marshal Hugh Gough, 1st Viscount Gough.[3] After leaving military service he worked as a stockbroker. From 1993 to his death he served as a Director of Barwell Consulting, an investment consultancy based in Glasgow, Scotland.
Gough was actively involved in English Freemasonry, having been initiated in the Prince of Wales's Lodge No 259 (London) in 1966 and installed as Master of the Lodge of Assistance No 2773 (London) in 1972. He was subsequently Master of Lodge of Assistance for two further terms.[4] He served as Senior Grand Warden of the United Grand Lodge of England in 1984–1985.[5] He was a Grand Steward in both 1974 and 1991, and in 2007 was installed as Master of the Grand Stewards' Lodge. He was also connected with Freemasonry in both Ireland and Scotland.
Gough was Prior of the Grand Bailiwick of Scotland in the Order of Saint Lazarus.[6] The order aims to relieve the suffering of the sick and disadvantaged, with a particular emphasis on charitable support for those working for the relief and cure of leprosy.
Gough died on 14 April 2023, at the age of 81.[7] As he had no issue, nor any male cousins eligible to succeed to his titles,[8] they became extinct upon his death.
