A barony (plural baronies) are the lands held by a baron. It could also mean the rank of a baron or his time in that office.

Baronies with the SCA

A barony within the SCA is a large branch within and subject to the administration of a Kingdom, or Principality if there is one. They administer the branches within their borders, and have a Baron and Baroness, the ceremonial representatives appointed by the Crown. Baronies have their own baronial level awards.

Advancement to barony can only occur if the following are in place:

  • 25 SCA members
  • Set of officers acceptable to the Crown (and the Coronet, if applicable)
  • A registered name and device
  • Consensus favouring advancement by the population of the proposed barony, and the Crown.
  • A baron and baroness must be selected at the time of application.
  • A strong record of activity in a variety of fields of endeavour.
