Fletcher-Vane baronets

The Vane-Fletcher, later Fletcher-Vane Baronetcy, of Hutton in the County of Cumberland, was a title in the Baronetage of Great Britain. It was created on 27 June 1786 for Lionel Vane-Fletcher. His son, the second Baronet, was a Member of Parliament for Winchelsea and Carlisle. He assumed the surname of Fletcher-Vane in lieu of Vane-Fletcher. The fifth Baronet was involved in the Scouting movement. The title became extinct on his death in 1934.

The family estates at Hutton-in-the-Forest passed to William Vane, who took the surname Fletcher-Vane in 1931 and was created Baron Inglewood in 1964. The surname reflects descent from the Fletcher baronets of Hutton.
