Baron Inverclyde, of Castle Wemyss in the County of Renfrew,[1] was a title in the Peerage of the United Kingdom. It was created in 1897 for the Scottish shipowner Sir John Burns, 2nd Baronet. The Baronetcy had been created in the Baronetage of the United Kingdom in 1889 for George Burns.[2] The titles became extinct on the death without issue of the fourth Baron in 1957.
