List of Viscounts in the peerages of the British Isles



This is a list of present Viscounts in the Peerages of England, Scotland, Great Britain, Ireland, and the United Kingdom. Note that it does not include those still-extant viscountcies which have become merged (either through marriage or elevation) with more elevated peerages and are today only seen as subsidiary titles. For a more complete list, which adds these "hidden" viscounties as well as extinct, dormant, abeyant, and forfeit ones, see List of Viscountcies.
