Is the flower bed on the right young roses? From His Lordship's blurb - "A maintained ornamental garden at the house has a rose-garden, originally developed in 1905 and replanted with 400 new roses in 1982; and a pergola. ..."

Anyway, before 1910 - "The interior is a surprise, for the house was decorated about 1910 by Waring & Gillow, who provided elaborate plasterwork, a curving main stair, and an Elizabethan-style fireplace. at the same time battlements to match the tower were added across the front of the house, making it even prettier."

The catalogue says "1933" but wikipedia says she played the role in 1924. Must be the stage make-up making her look much older than 34 or 25. Eileen Alice Izabella Crowe (2 March 1899 – 8 May 1978) en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eileen_Crowe www.dib.ie/biography/crowe-eileen-alice-izabella-a2252

Aha! Evidently she was not Juno, but Mary Boyle in the 1924 production. See - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Juno_and_the_Paycock
