Fletcher baronets of Hutton le Forest (1641)

The Fletcher baronets of Hutton le Forest were a title in the Baronetage of England. It was created on 6 March 1641 for Sir Henry Fletcher, of Hutton le Forest in the County of Cumberland.

The baronetcy was held by the Fletcher family, seated at Hutton-in-the-Forest, a historic house and estate in Skelton, Cumbria, England. The family held significant land and influence in the region.

The title became extinct upon the death of the seventh baronet, Sir Henry Fletcher, in 1851. He had no male heir.

Succession to the baronetcy was hereditary, typically passing down to the eldest son of the previous baronet. As such, the line of succession was dependent on male heirs. With the extinction of the title, the lands and estates of the Fletcher family were passed down through other family lines, typically through female relatives.
