The title of Viscount Bridport was created twice in British history. It was first created in 1800 in the Peerage of Great Britain for Alexander Hood, 1st Baron Bridport, already Baron Bridport in both the Peerage of Ireland (1794) and the Peerage of Great Britain (1796). This Viscountcy and the British barony became extinct with his death in 1814, but the Irish barony passed on, and the 3rd Baron Bridport was again created Viscount Bridport in 1868.
