Unfortunately I cannot afford to visit Waterford this year and even if I had the money and was willing to pay the asking price there are no rooms available at dates that suit me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I photographed this back in May 2026 and did not notice the blue plaque as I was using a 90mm and was at a distance and I was trying to photograph something else and failed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Richard visited Ireland twice, first in 1394\u20135 and again in 1399, shortly before the usurpation of his crown by Henry of Lancaster. On both occasions Richard came at the head of a large army in order to reassert his authority within the lordship of Ireland. The greatest threat to this authority in 1394 and 1399 arguably came in the form of Art Mac Murrough (Mac Murchadha), king of Leinster (d. 1416\/17).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
