The Barony of Halton, in Cheshire, England, comprised a succession of 15 barons and hereditary Constables of Chester under the overlordship of the Earl of Chester. It was not an English feudal barony granted by the king[a] but a separate class of barony within the County Palatine of Chester.
^Sanders (1960), p. 138
