The title of Baron Howard was created in the Peerage of England. On 15 October 1470 John Howard was summoned to parliament. In 1483 he was created Duke of Norfolk, and in 1485 he was Attainted and his titles were forfeited. It is not clear if the barony of Howard was restored with the dukedom. If so, the barony would have fallen into abeyance in 1777.
