{{Use dmy dates|date=May 2015}}{{Use British English|date=May 2015}}Baron Hatherton, of Hatherton in the County of Stafford,^[1] is a title in the Peerage of the United Kingdom. It was created in 1835 for the politician Edward Littleton, Chief Secretary for Ireland from 1833 to 1834. Born Edward Walhouse, he assumed in 1812 by Royal licence the surname of Littleton in lieu of his patronymic on succeeding to the estates of his great-uncle Sir Edward Littleton, 4th and last Baronet, of Teddesley Hall. He was also heir to the substantial Walhouse estates and interests, which included Hatherton Hall, near Cannock, then in an exclave of Wolverhampton. His wealth was based landed estates centred on Penkridge in southern Staffordshire, mines at Great Wyrley and Bloxwich, quarries and sandpits, brick yards and residential housing, mainly in Walsall.^[2]

Lord Hatherton was succeeded by his son, Edward Richard, the second Baron, who represented Walsall in the House of Commons as a Liberal. His son, the third Baron, notably served as Military Secretary to the Governor General of Canada between 1875 and 1879. The title followed the line of his eldest son, the fourth Baron, until the death of the latter's third son, the seventh Baron, in 1985. The late Baron was succeeded by his first cousin once removed, the eighth and ({{as of|2010}}) present holder of the title. He is the grandson of Lieutenant-Colonel the Hon. Charles Christopher Josceline Littleton, third son of the third Baron.

In 1919, the 3rd Lord Hatherton disposed of large estates in the Penkridge area. In many cases, farms were sold to their tenants.^[3] The 5th Lord Hatherton made even larger disposals of landed property, selling over {{convert|1,520|acre|km2}} at Penkridge and {{convert|2,976|acre|km2}} in Teddesley Hay in 1953, including the 18th century seat, Teddesley Hall.^[4]
