Desperate googling ensued but I could find no mention in Debretts, or anywhere else for that matter, of a Barony in the name of Mole, imagination ran riot, was he some kind of conman? was there a scandal? Slowly reason took hold, I found Edith's marriage, to a Lawrence B Mole, and, sure enough, further research showed the B to stand for Baron!
and much deflation of SRD 
Leaving aside why anyone would want to christen their child Baron, or why that child might want to call himself Baron, I though this was an object lesson in the perils of over excitement in the study of genealogy.
