A titanic tale which captures the heart
For it was from this 17th century plantation home, often described as one of the prettiest house’s in Ireland, that an 11-year-old girl, Eileen Lenox-Conyngham, started her journey to embark as a first class passenger on the world’s most famous ship.
Barbara, Alice, Denis and Eileen Lenox-Conyngham began their journey in Southampton but fortunately for them were only crossing the Channel so they disembarked in Cherbourg before travelling on to Paris for their family holiday.
