Duke of Surrey

The title of Duke of Surrey was created in 1397 by King Richard II of England for his nephew, Thomas Holland, 3rd Earl of Kent. Following Richard's deposition, his successor, Henry IV deprived his predecessors' supporters of many of their titles, including this one, which has never since been recreated.

The title Earl of Surrey, also derived from the county of Surrey, has been used more often and still exists.
