Baron Bateman, of Shobdon in the County of Hereford, was a title in the Peerage of the United Kingdom. It was created on 30 January 1837 for William Bateman, previously member of Parliament for Northampton. Born William Hanbury, he was the grandson of William Hanbury and Sarah, daughter of William Western and Anne, sister of William Bateman, 1st Viscount Bateman (a title which became extinct in 1802). Lord Bateman was succeeded by his eldest son, the second Baron. He held minor political office and served as Lord-Lieutenant of Herefordshire for many years. The title became extinct on the death of his childless son, the third Baron, in 1931.

The Hon. Charles Bateman-Hanbury-Kincaid-Lennox, younger son of the first Baron, was a politician.
