Earl of Carlisle
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The title Earl of Carlisle has been created several times in the Peerage of England. The most recent creation was for Sir Charles Howard, a scion of the famous Howard family.
The subsidiary titles of Lord Carlisle are: Viscount Howard of Morpeth, of Morpeth in the County of Northumberland (created 1661), Baron Dacre of Gillesland, of Gillesland in the County of Cumberland (1482), and Lord Ruthven of Freeland (1651). The Viscountcy and Barony are in the Peerage of England, whilst the Lordship of Parliament is in the Peerage of Scotland.
The Heir Apparent to the Earldom, when one exists, is styled Viscount Morpeth.
The principal family seat was Castle Howard, but is now Naworth Castle.
