Lechmere baronets

The Lechmere Baronetcy, of The Rhydd in the County of Worcester, is a title in the Baronetage of the United Kingdom.

The sixth Baronet served as high sheriff in 1962 and as Vice-Lieutenant of Herefordshire and Worcestershire in 1977.

Sir Edmund Anthony Harley Lechmere, 3rd Baronet (1826–1894) and his wife were among the founders of Venerable Order of St John.

[3] A treatise on the antiquities of Malvern was dedicated to the 3rd Baronet because of the association of his family with the area for many centuries.

[4] The heir apparent is the present holder's son Frederick Patrick Hungerford Lechmere (born 1992).
