<br />
<span style="color: #274e13;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b><span style="font-size: small;">I hold the Barony of Greenan in the Ancient Baronage of the Isles. This is separate from the newer Barony of Greenan in the Baronage of Scotland. The Ancient Baronage of the Isles dates to a time when the King of Scots was not the only Front of Honour in Scotland. Greenan Castle is believed by some historians to be one of the actual historic sites of the legendary King Arthur. Over thirty years ago I purchased this Barony from the late Marquis of Alisa.</span></b></span></span><br />
