Arthur Guinness, 4th Earl of Iveagh

Arthur Edward Rory Guinness, 4th Earl of Iveagh, DL (born 10 August 1969), is the son of Arthur Francis Benjamin Guinness, 3rd Earl of Iveagh and Miranda Guinness.

During the latter part of the 1990s he topped the richest under-30 list with wealth exceeding £2 billion.

He lives on the 22,486 acre (91 km²) Elveden estate in Suffolk, England, though not in the main house Elveden Hall, which is still owned by the family but is empty. It operates as a 'one unit' farm concentrating on root vegetables with cereals as a break crop. Approximately 4,000 acres (16 km²) comprises forest.

He sold Farmleigh, the family's Irish home, to the Irish Government in 1999.
