The title of Earl of Stradbroke (pronounced "Stradbrook") was created in the Peerage of the United Kingdom in 1821.

The Earl bears the subsidiary titles of Viscount Dunwich (1821) in the Peerage of the UK and Baron Rous (1796) in the Peerage of Great Britain, and is an English baronet (1660).

3rd Earl was appointed Governor of Victoria from 1921 to 1926. The family now lives at Mount Fyans, Victoria. In 2003, the 6th Earl considered selling the estate in England, but subsequently changed his mind.
