Baron Kindersley

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Baron Kindersley, of West Hoathly in the County of Sussex,[1] is a title in the Peerage of the United Kingdom. It was created in 1941 for the businessman Sir Robert Kindersley, chiefly in recognition of his work as President of the National Savings Committee. His second son, the second Baron, was a Brigadier in the Scots Guards. As of 2017 the title is held by the latter's grandson, the 4th Baron, who succeeded his father in 2013.
