The Barony of Loch Soilleir is an SCA branch in the Kingdom of Ansteorra. Originally a part of the Barony of Stargate, the Barony of Loch Soilleir encompasses the southern part of greater Houston including Brazoria and Galveston Counties, as well as the Clear Lake area.
The name of the Shire of Loch Soilleir was registered in August of 1980 and the device was registered in February of 1987. Loch Soilleir was elevated to Baronial status on June 15, 1991.
Loch Soilleir annually hosts an event on the first weekend in May where Baronial Champions are chosen (typically called Loch Guardian), a chivalric and rapier melee event in October (called Tourney By the Loch and, more recently, Lochtoberfest), and a small holiday event called Loch Yule usually held on the second or third weekend in December. In addition to these annual events, Loch Soilleir has also hosted many kingdom level events, individually or with the neighboring Barony of Stargate, including Guardian of the Gauntlet, Squires and Cadets Invitational, Crown Tournament, Queen's Champion, Laurel's Prize Tourney, Ansteorran Bardic Collegium, and others.
