Baron Nunburnholme, of the City of Kingston-upon-Hull, is a title in the Peerage of the United Kingdom.[2] It was created in 1906 for the former Liberal Member of Parliament for Hull and Hull West, Charles Wilson. His son, the second Baron, also represented Hull West in Parliament as a Liberal and served as Lord Lieutenant of the East Riding of Yorkshire between 1908 and 1924. The title descended from father to son until the death of the second Baron's grandson, the fourth Baron, in 1999. The late Baron was succeeded by his younger brother, the fifth Baron. As of 2014 the title is held by the latter's son, the sixth Baron, who succeeded in 2000.
