Baron ffrench, of Castle ffrench in the County of Galway, is a title in the Peerage of Ireland created on 14 February 1798 for Rose, Lady ffrench.[1] She was the widow of Charles ffrench, who had been created a Baronet, of Clogha in County Galway, in the Baronetage of Ireland on 17 August 1779.[2] Their son Thomas succeeded in both the baronetcy and barony. Both titles have descended via primogeniture to the present Baron.

The title and the family name are both spelled with a lower-case double-'f'.
