Baron Howard of Penrith, of Gowbarrow in the County of Cumberland,[1] is a title in the Peerage of the United Kingdom. It was created in 1930 for the diplomat Sir Esmé Howard, who had previously served as British Ambassador to the United States. A member of the famous Howard family, he was the grandson of Lord Henry Howard-Molyneux-Howard, younger brother of Bernard Howard, 12th Duke of Norfolk. As of 2010[update] the title is held by his grandson, the third Baron, who succeeded his father in 1999. Lord Howard of Penrith is also in remainder to the dukedom of Norfolk and its subsidiary titles.
Henry Howard and Sir Stafford Howard, brothers of the first Baron, were both Members of Parliament. The first baron's sons included Henry Howard and Hubert Howard.
