The Langham Baronetcy, of Cottesbrooke in the County of Northampton, is a title in the Baronetage of England. It was created on 7 June 1660 for John Langham, Member of Parliament for the City of London in 1654 and for Southwark in 1660 and 1661. The second Baronet was Member of Parliament for Northamptonshire and Northampton while the third Baronet sat for Northampton. The seventh Baronet was Member of Parliament for Northamptonshire. The tenth Baronet represented St Germans in the House of Commons. The thirteenth Baronet was a photographer, ornithologist and entomologist and served as High Sheriff of County Fermanagh in 1930.

The family seat now is Tempo Manor, near Tempo, County Fermanagh, and was previously Cottesbrooke Hall, near Creaton, Northamptonshire, which they sold in the mid-19th centry.[1]
