Henry Dymoke

Sir Henry Dymoke, 1st Baronet (1801 – 28 April 1865), was a British landowner and the hereditary King's Champion.

[2] As the holder of the manor of Scrivelsby, Lincolnshire, he was the hereditary King's Champion.

However, at the coronation of Queen Victoria this function was dispensed with.

Probably as a way of compensation, Dymoke was made a baronet, of Scrivelsby in the County of Lincoln, in 1841 (the normal honour for a King's Champion was a knighthood).

[1] Dymoke died in April 1865 and the baronetcy became extinct.
