The Hutchinson, later Synge-Hutchinson Baronetcy, of Castlesallagh in the County of Wicklow, was an Irish title created on 11 December 1782 for Francis Hutchinson, a Member of Parliament for Jamestown. He was the son of The Right Reverend Samuel Hutchinson, Bishop of Killala and Achonry. After the second Baronet died in 1813, the title passed to Samuel Synge, who added Hutchinson to his name due to a special clause in the patent. He was the great-nephew of the first two baronets and the brother of Sir Robert Synge, 1st Baronet, of Kiltrough. In 1844 he served as High Sheriff of County Cork. The title became extinct on the death of the fourth Baronet in 1906.
