Baron Langdale was a title that was created twice in British history. The first creation came in the Peerage of England on 4 February 1658 when the prominent royalist commander of the English Civil War, Sir Marmaduke Langdale, was made by Baron Langdale, of Holme. He had fought alongside Prince Rupert and the Marquess of Newcastle at the Battle of Marston Moor, prior to the war he was the High Sheriff of Yorkshire and in later life a Catholic convert. His son, the second Baron, was Governor of Kingston-upon-Hull. The title descended from father to son until the death of the fifth Baron in 1777. He had no heir as his only son had died as an infant and the title became extinct on his death in 1777. The territorial designation "of Holme" refers to the family's chief seat, Holme Hall in the parish of Holme-on-Spalding-Moor, Yorkshire. The ancient surname of "Langdale" refers to the manor of Langdale in the hundred of Pickering in the County of York which Marmaduke's ancestors held as their seat from before the reign of King John (1199-1216).
