feudal titles existing today in law
Scottish Feudal Baronies
These ancient titles were conveyed with ownership of a specific area of land - known as the caput. This changed in 2004 when they became "incorporeal feudal hereditaments." This is the only title of nobility which is recognized by it's gov't and which may be conveyed freely.
Channel Island Seigneurs & Fiefs
The last remnants of The Duchy of Normandy still under Crown control, The Channel Islands have a unique history all their own - including a system of 'squirearchy' dominated by seigneurs holding fiefs in-chief of the monarch - or Duke, rather.
English Lordships of the Manor
Perhaps the oldest, most complex and least understood titles of the three - English lordships of the manor predate The Norman Conquest. Agricultural, social and judicial in nature, manors were the fundamental building blocks that made "feudalism" work.
