Encyclopedia : B : BA : BAR : Baron Hastings


The title Baron Hastings is an ancient one in the Peerage of England. It was created in 1295 by writ. The third Baron was created Earl of Pembroke, but the earldom became extinct in 1389, when there were no heirs of the first Earl surviving. At the death of the fifteenth baron in 1542, the barony went into abeyance for over 299 years, until the abeyance was terminated in favour of Jacob Astley in 1841. The family seat is Seaton Delaval Hall.
