    A final Kavanagh excerpt! Back once again in wild, wet Monaghan Exiled from thought and feeling, A mean brutality reigns: It is really a horrible position to be in And I equate myself with Dante And all who have lived outside civilization. It isn't a question of place but of people;

    Derrick Westenra, 5th Baron Rossmore (1853 - 1921) was the owner at the time. He succeeded to the title in 1874 on the death of his older brother (hence the memorial in Monaghan, see last Monday). Wiki - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Derrick_Westenra,_5th_Baron_Rossmore Interesting because he wrote a charming book about his life, times and people, full of period tittle-tattle: 'Things I Can Tell' (1912 Nash, London) - available online via the NLI website or - archive.org/details/thingsicantell00ross/page/n11/mode/2up

    Early leader for that organ is St. Patricks Cathedral, Downpatrick.
  • derangedlemur said:
    Niall McAuley Did you recognise the organ or did you just base it on this one with the same title plainly being St Patricks? catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000563829

    A modern shot which matches and a somewhat sparser looking Lawrence Edit: per the beachcomber below, the Lawrence is a reverse view. makes sense.
  • beachcomber australia said:
    There is a reverse view of that wonderful organ case - catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000563832 , and a GoogleView from that side - goo.gl/maps/8NgHimsqUhQ2 - showing the case is intact. Ed. 2nd thoughts the streetview is this side, but the choir gallery has been extended east.
