Baron Altrincham

Baron Altrincham, of Tormarton in the County of Gloucester, is a title in the Peerage of the United Kingdom. It was created on 1 August 1945 for the politician Edward Grigg. His son, the second Baron, was a politician and journalist. He was famous for criticising the life of the Queen in 1957. Soon after the passage of the Peerage Act 1963 on 31 July 1963, he disclaimed the title for life. As of 2020 the title is held by his nephew, who succeeded as 4th Baron on his father's death in that year.
