Baron Burghclere

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Baron Burghclere, of Walden in the County of Essex, was a title in the Peerage of the United Kingdom. It was created in 1895 for the Liberal politician Herbert Coulstoun Gardner, who had previously served as President of the Board of Agriculture. Gardner was the illegitimate son of Alan Legge Gardner, 3rd Baron Gardner. Lord Burghclere's youngest daughter Hon. Evelyn Gardner was the first wife of the author Evelyn Waugh. He had three other daughters, but no sons, and consequently the title became extinct on his death in 1921.
