Territorial Barony

Territorial Barons and Baronesses are chosen by the Crown to hold a Barony in fief, based on recommendations provided by the populace. They are sometimes referred to as “Landed” Barons and Baronesses.

They may wear a gold coronet adorned with six spheroids (generally pearls), may style themselves as 'Baron' or 'Baroness', and may be addressed as 'Your Excellency'.

In Ealdormere, Territorial Barons and Baronesses generally hold a tenure between three to five years in length. They swear fealty to the Crown during their Investiture and are the official representatives of the Crown in their Barony and may hold baronial courts.
