Stanier baronets

The Stanier Baronetcy, of Peplow Hall in Hodnet in the County of Shropshire, is a title in the Baronetage of the United Kingdom. It was created on 16 July 1917 for Beville Stanier, Conservative Member of Parliament for Newport and Ludlow and local newspaper proprietor. His son, the second Baronet, was a Brigadier in the Welsh Guards and a member of the Shropshire County Council.

As of 2007 the title is held by the latter's son, the third Baronet, who succeeded in 1995. He inherited the Shotover Estate in Oxfordshire from his late uncle Sir John Miller, Crown Equerry, and he is friends with Queen Elizabeth II.[1][2][3][4] He got engaged in 2009, at the age of 75, to Nerena Stephenson, a curtain maker.[1][5] He is a councillor for Great Horwood.[6]
