Sir, - The restoration of Lord Glengall's Swiss Cottage at Cahir thoroughly deserved to win the RIAI silver medal for restoration.
I would like to point out, however, that this imaginative restoration work would not have been possible without the extremely generous funding of Mrs Sally Aall through her charity, the Port Royal Foundation. The other major and early benefactors were William Roth of Princeton and Tipperary and the Irish Georgian Society which raised monies at the initial stage from its many members both in Ireland and in the United States. - Yours, etc.,
President,
Irish Georgian Society. 74 Merrion Square,
