British politician and baronet.

Acland was a supporter of the anti-slavery movement in Britain and was friends with William Wilberforce (1759-1833) and Hannah More (1745-1833). He also had links to Samuel Ajayi Crowther (c. 1809-91), who was the the first African Anglican bishop of West Africa. Acland's third son, Charles Richard Dyke Acland (1793-1828), was captain of HMS Helicon between 1825 and 1828, which made visits to the East African coastline.

The Acland family's broad connections to global and imperial histories are the subject of ongoing research by the National Trust and partners.
