The Mellor Baronetcy, of Culmhead in the County of Somerset, was a title in the Baronetage of the United Kingdom. It was created on 24 January 1924 for Sir John Mellor,[4] Director of Prudential Assurance Company. The second Baronet was the Conservative member of parliament for Tamworth from 1935 to 1945 and for Sutton Coldfield from 1945 to 1955.
