Barony in the Peerage of the United Kingdom

Baron Marchamley, of Hawkestone in the County of Salop, is a title in the Peerage of the United Kingdom. It was created in 1908 for the Liberal politician George Whiteley, who had previously represented Stockport and Pudsey in the House of Commons. As of 2014 the title is held by his great-grandson, the fourth Baron, who succeeded his father in 1994.

The Conservative politician Sir Herbert Huntington-Whiteley, 1st Baronet, was the younger brother of the first Baron.
