Baron Wyfold

Baron Wyfold, of Accrington in the County of Lancaster, was a title in the Peerage of the United Kingdom. It was created on 17 May 1919 for Sir Robert Hermon-Hodge, 1st Baronet, the former Conservative Member of Parliament for Accrington, Henley and Croydon. He had already been created a baronet, of Wyfold Court in the Parish of Chickendon in the County of Oxford, in the Baronetage of the United Kingdom in 1902. Born Robert Hodge, he assumed in 1903 by Royal licence the additional surname of Hermon, which was that of his father-in-law, Edward Hermon. The titles became extinct on the death of Lord Wyfold's grandson, the third Baron, on 8 April 1999.
