Great Steward of Scotland

Der Titel Great Steward of Scotland oder High Steward of Scotland ist ein Titel des britischen Thronfolgers. Inhaber ist zurzeit Charles Mountbatten-Windsor, Prince of Wales.

Der Titel wurde erstmals im 12. Jahrhundert an Walter Fitzalan verliehen. Dessen Nachkommen wurden zur Stewart-Familie. Der letzte High Steward bestieg 1371 den schottischen Thron. Danach wurde der Titel dem Duke of Rothesay zugeordnet, traditionell der Titel des schottischen Thronanwärters. Somit ist der Prince of Wales der High Steward of Scotland, oder auch Prince and Great Steward of Scotland.
