Tipperary People and Places March Lecture
‘For Services Rendered? Aspects of the Peerage in County Tipperary’ by Des Marnane. The popularity of the TV series Downton Abbey indicates an interest in the lives of Lords and Ladies. Big houses, servants and snobbery. What’s not to like? Des Marnane discusses how the system worked; who got to be a lord; some family histories; the influence of peers on land ownership and public policy; their houses, marriages and some scandals and of course the decline in the power and influence of the class, of which peers were the elite. Lecture will take place in the Source, Thurles on Tuesday 19th March 2013 at 7.30pm. All are welcome and admission is Free. For further details, contact John or Mary (0504) 29278.
