Title supplied from contents.
The origin of the variant spelling ‘Cherbury’ is not known, and it is arguably incorrect: it does not conform to the usual spelling of the village of Chirbury; it does not appear in the letters patent granting the barony to Edward Herbert in 1629; and it has not generally been preferred by subsequent holders of the title. However, over many years, it has become a more widely recognised usage than ‘Chirbury’ in relation to the Herbert family, and for this reason it has been retained in this description.
