Lord Balfour of Burleigh, in the County of Kinross, is a title in the Peerage of Scotland.

His grandson, the fifth Lord, was tried and convicted of the murder of schoolmaster Henry Stenhouse at Inverkeithing in 1709.

He was primarily known as Master of Burleigh, the title for the heir to the peerage, as he never took his seat in Parliament when his father died in 1713.

[1][3] Alexander Hugh Bruce, the 6th Lord Balfour of Burleigh, was the great-great-grandson of Hon.

Mary Balfour (d. 1758), daughter of the fourth Lord, and her husband Brigadier-General Alexander Bruce.

As of 2019[update], the title is held by his granddaughter, the ninth Lady, who succeeded his father in that year.
