| has gloss | (noun) the estate of a baron barony |
| has gloss | eng: Tenure by barony was the higher feudal tenure of a lord who had subordinate knights. Originally, a barony was the land subject to a baron and could, in England after the Norman Conquest, consist of estates scattered throughout the country or in several regions (see, for example, the barony of the earl of Pembroke, with estates in England, Ireland, and Normandy). The head manor of a barony often had a castle. It is sometimes difficult to be sure whether a particular estate was considered a barony or not, partly because the status of a baron was more than a matter of mere tenure. |

| has gloss | dan: Et baroni er en subnational enhed, ofte af ringere omfang eller betydning end et grevskab. Tidligere var et baroni et len, der stod under en barons overhøjhed. I Danmark blev betegnelsen lensbaroni anvendt, og modsat andre lande var baron hertillands kun en ærestitel, mens det var den såkaldte lensbaron, der var forlenet med et landområde. |
