  • The History of Luttrellstown Demesne, Co. Dublin
    NORTHERN IRELAND HERITAGE GARDENS TRUST OCCASIONAL PAPER, No 4 (2015) 'Without Rival in our Metropolitan County' - The History of Luttrellstown Demesne, Co. Dublin Terence Reeves-Smyth Luttrellstown demesne, which occupies around 600 acres within its walls, has long been recognised as the finest eighteenth century landscape in County Dublin and one of the best in Ireland. Except for the unfortunate incorporation of a golf course into the eastern portion of its historic parkland, the designed landscape has otherwise survived largely unchanged for over two centuries. With its subtle inter-relationship of tree belts and woodlands, its open spaces and disbursement of individual tree specimens, together with its expansive lake, diverse buildings and its tree-clad glen, the demesne, known as 'Woodlands' in the 19th century, was long the subject of lavish praise and admiration from tourists and travellers. As a writer in the Irish Penny Journal remarked in October 1840: ‘considered in connection with its beautiful demesne, [Luttrellstown] may justly rank as the finest aristocratic residence in the immediate vicinity of our metropolis.. in its natural beauties, the richness of its plantations and other artificial improvements, is without rival in our metropolitan county, and indeed is characterised by some features of such exquisite beauty as are rarely found in park scenery anywhere, and which are nowhere to be surpassed’.1 Fig 1. 'View on approaching Luttrellstown Park', drawn & aquatinted by Jonathan Fisher; published as plate 6 in Scenery

Trump. The letter issued by the NCC was addressed to Vice President Mike Pence, members of Congress, and members of the president’s Cabinet. According to CNN reporting, Pence is holding out the option of invoking the 25th amendment should Trump become more unstable. New reporting from Acosta states, "VP Pence has not ruled out an effort to invoke the 25th Amendment and wants to [email protected] Page 2 January 11, 2021 preserve it as an option in case Trump becomes more unstable, a source close to the VP says." Southern Baptist ethicist Russell Moore has called for Trump to resign stating, “Mr. President, people are dead. The Capitol is ransacked. There are 12 dangerous days for our country left. “Could you please step down and let our country heal?” https://t.co/wP3niITQv6 In addition, the presidential cabinet of the Society for Christian Ethics has called for Trump’s removal. The NCC letter of January 8, 2021 follows: [email protected] Page 3 January 11, 2021 “Our faith instructs us to take seriously positions of leadership, not to lead others astray and to be careful about what we say and do.
