Description

The White Knights ruled vast estates in Munster until the seventeenth century when their land passed to the King family. In 1823 the third Earl of Kingston built Mitchelstown Castle, the largest in Ireland but trouble followed trouble. In August 1922 Republican forces burned the castle. This is the story of a powerful dynasty that echoes Ireland's history.
