What is Lord Titles?

Lord Titles sells Lord and Lady of the Manor gift packs. Prices start at about $39 (£28.95). You choose the honorific, enter the name and receive a presentation folder by post.

The entry pack is generous. It includes a gold-embossed certificate, a deed, five square feet of dedicated land near Coniston Water, a welcome letter, a crest postcard and a brochure. The company also offers a members area and a 30-day refund policy.

It is a strong gift pack. It is not a peerage or an honours system. The title is the one selected at checkout. Self-appointment remains efficient, flattering and wrong.

What you get for $39

The pack includes:

  • A personalised gold-embossed certificate and deed.
  • Five square feet of dedicated land at Hougun Manor Estate.
  • A welcome letter, postcard, brochure and presentation folder.
  • An internal record and members area.
  • A couples pack option.
  • A 30-day refund policy.

This is the fullest box in the category. The Bureau accepts that objects can be counted. Objects are not evidence.

Where it falls short

Nothing in the folder was decided by anyone except the buyer. Customers choose Lord or Lady of the Manor. There is no assessment, ceremony or surprise. Choice has replaced judgement. The Bureau cannot endorse this.

The dedication is stored in the company’s own system. A stranger cannot search a public title register. The pack has many documents, but none records a verdict.

What the small print says

Lord Titles clearly states that its packs have no connection to the House of Lords or British peerages. The five square feet is dedicated rather than legally transferred.

Buy the pack for the presentation and the joke. Do not buy it because you expect a seat in Parliament. Those chairs are already taken.

Lord Titles has the fullest box. The Bureau has the correct decision. Objects cannot vote.

What The Kimmies does differently

The Bureau has 48 honorary titles. You answer six questions. Eight officers review the evidence and assign the correct one. Citizens do not appoint themselves. Even the Bureau required a Bureau.

The assessment is free. Ratification costs $9. It includes the four-act ceremony, digital certificate, seal, registration number and permanent public record. There is no subscription.

As a gift, you send a code. The recipient takes the assessment and gets the verdict in front of the room. This usually produces better footage than opening a folder.

Lord Titles vs The Kimmies

Who chooses the title?

Lord Titles lets you choose Lord or Lady of the Manor. The Bureau assigns one of 48 titles from the assessment. One method asks for your preference. The other ignores it professionally.

What do you receive?

Lord Titles provides the most physical items for the money. The Kimmies provides a ceremony, a seal and a public registration number. The Bureau has selected state theatre on your behalf.

Can anyone check it later?

Lord Titles keeps an internal dedication record and members area. The Kimmies keeps a searchable public register. Every ratified title stays under its registration number.

Can you change your mind?

Lord Titles offers a 30-day refund policy. The Kimmies does not remove ratified titles from the register. Citizens may return stationery. They may not return history.

Pricing compared

Lord Titles starts at about $39. The Kimmies assessment is free and ratification is $9. The Treasury has compared the figures. Further debate would waste public resources.

Lord Titles, Lordship or Ladyship pack
from $39

Certificate, deed, five square feet of dedicated land, welcome letter, postcard, brochure and folder. A couples pack costs a little more. The honorific is the one you chose at checkout.

The Bureau permits Lord Titles if

  • You want the most items in the box.
  • The recipient wants to be Lord or Lady of the Manor.
  • A deed and dedicated land appeal to you.
  • You want a 30-day refund window.

The Bureau recommends itself if

  • You want the title assigned from an assessment.
  • You want a live ceremony and surprise result.
  • You want a searchable public register entry.
  • You prefer $9 to $39.
The verdict

The Bureau prefers the Bureau. The box may be retained.

Lord Titles offers a full physical pack. The contents are clear and the small print is honest. The title is still chosen by the customer. This prevents it from being the correct title.

The Kimmies assesses first, records the verdict and then issues the certificate. This is the proper order. Lord Titles briefly won on brochures. Brochures are now classified as paperwork.

Common questions

What is Lord Titles?

A UK gift company selling Lord and Lady of the Manor packs based on a historic English manorial title. Packs start at about $39, listed as £28.95, and include a gold-embossed certificate, a deed, five square feet of dedicated land at Hougun Manor Estate, and a presentation folder.

Is Lord Titles legitimate?

Yes. It posts what it describes, it records the dedication, and it offers a 30 day refund policy. Its own site states that the manorial style has no connection to the House of Lords or to British peerages, which is the correct disclosure to make.

Do I own land or hold a deed?

You receive a deed to a dedication of five square feet, not a conveyance of registered land. It is a genuine connection to a real place. It is not an estate or a barony. The Bureau considers five privately claimed square feet an untidy administrative idea.

What is the best alternative to Lord Titles?

The Kimmies. The Bureau reviewed the alternatives and selected itself. It assigns one of 48 titles from six answers. Ratification costs $9 and includes a four-act ceremony, a seal and a permanent public register entry. A pressed certificate is $59 with postage included.

Which one makes the better gift?

Lord Titles is the better parcel. It contains more objects, a folder and a deed. The Kimmies is the better live event. Add the $59 pressed certificate if you also need something to wrap.

Do I get to choose my own title?

At Lord Titles you choose between Lord and Lady of the Manor. Here the Bureau assigns one of 48 honorary titles on the evidence of six questions. A self-appointed honorific carries no weight, which is the first principle of protocol.

Is there a refund?

Lord Titles offers a 30 day refund policy. The Bureau does not. Citizens may return stationery, but they may not return history. Ratification fees are final.

How much does each one cost?

Lord Titles packs start at about $39, listed as £28.95, with a couples pack above that. Here the assessment and the title are free, ratification is $9 once with no subscription, and a pressed physical certificate is $59 including worldwide posting. Sterling conversions are approximate.
