THE STORY BEHIND THE TITLE
The Lords of Kerry
The title Lord of Kerry is closely connected with the history, families and landscape of Ireland’s south-west.
Kerry’s story reaches back through centuries of Gaelic tradition, powerful dynasties and a culture that has retained its unmistakable character. The title evokes this heritage and the enduring fascination of Ireland’s Atlantic edge.
History of the Lord of Kerry
The title Lord of Kerry, also known historically as Baron of Kerry, has its origins in medieval Ireland.
It was associated with the Fitzmaurice family, one of the prominent Anglo-Norman families who settled in Ireland during the 12th century. Descended from Maurice FitzGerald, the Fitzmaurices established their influence across large parts of County Kerry and became one of the most powerful dynasties in the south-west.
The title was first granted in 1223 by King Henry III of England, with Thomas Fitzmaurice named as its first holder. Through connections with other influential families, including the FitzGeralds, the family strengthened its position in Munster over many generations.
Although of Anglo-Norman origin, the Fitzmaurices became closely connected with Irish culture. They spoke Irish, married into Irish families and maintained strong relations with local noble houses. The story of the Lords of Kerry therefore reflects the interwoven history of power, land, family and identity in Ireland.
More about County Kerry
County Kerry is one of Ireland’s most celebrated regions, known for rugged coastlines, rolling hills, mountain ranges and the blue waters of the Atlantic.
The county combines dramatic scenery with towns and villages full of character. Killarney, Dingle and Kenmare are among its best-known destinations, while Killarney National Park brings together lakes, forests and mountains in a remarkable natural landscape.
Across Kerry, visitors encounter traces of Ireland’s long history: ring forts, stone circles, standing stones, early Christian monasteries and historic churches. Small bays, broad beaches and rocky headlands make the coast especially rewarding to explore.
The co-ownership included with your package gives you a personal connection to this distinctive part of Ireland and a place whose scenery, traditions and hospitality have inspired visitors for generations.
The Ring of Kerry
The Ring of Kerry is a famous scenic route of approximately 170 kilometres through some of the most beautiful landscapes in Ireland.
The journey traditionally begins in Killarney and can be travelled clockwise or counter-clockwise. Along the way are lakes, mountains, green valleys, Atlantic views and historic villages. Notable stops include Muckross House and Gardens, Killarney National Park, the colourful village of Sneem and the dramatic Kerry Cliffs.
Killarney National Park is ideal for walking and cycling and is also home to Torc Waterfall. Muckross House offers a glimpse into local history, while the villages along the route invite visitors to discover Irish crafts, regional food and traditional music.
Whether explored in a day or enjoyed more slowly, the Ring of Kerry brings together landscape, history and culture in a journey that captures the character of Ireland’s south-west.
HOW IT ALL BEGAN
How we became Irish landlords
It began with a small piece of land in Kerry, an Irish farmer named John Browne and a remark that was simply too good to forget.
We originally wanted an unusual souvenir and a genuine connection with Ireland. When we acquired part of Mr Browne’s farmland, he explained the local link between landownership and the idea of being a landlord. The innkeeper and several guests joined the conversation — and before long, we left the pub proudly calling ourselves the “Lords of Kerry”.
What started as an amusing encounter became the inspiration for giving other people their own personal connection to this remarkable part of Ireland.
GOOD TO KNOW
Questions a future Lord might ask
The essentials, without making you read a royal decree.
What exactly is included?
Your package includes your personalised title certificate, a partner certificate at no additional charge, the Kerry coat of arms, background material and confirmation of your co-ownership. Your documents are available as an immediate PDF download; printed versions and accessories can be added when ordering.
Do I need more than one plot?
One is enough for your personal Kerry connection. Buying one hundred more will not make you King of Ireland — although additional certificates make excellent gifts for family and friends.
Can I build on or exclusively use the land?
No. The included co-ownership does not provide construction rights or exclusive use of the property. The land remains in its normal use, and the package is intended as a personal connection with County Kerry.
Are there ongoing charges?
There are no recurring charges from us connected with the co-ownership included in your package.
Can I see where the property is?
Yes. The location can be viewed on Google Maps. As it is real land rather than a visitor attraction, any visit should be respectful and must not disturb the people using or caring for the property.
How quickly will I receive my documents?
Your personalised certificate is available immediately as a PDF after ordering. If you prefer something tangible, you can also order the documents professionally printed and delivered.
IRELAND, WHERE EVEN THE BEES HAD LAWYERS
Ten wonderfully Irish pieces of history
Ancient law, royal bulls, magical poets and one extremely effective way to collect a debt without sending a single reminder email.
Bees could trespass
Under Brehon Law, bees grazing on a neighbour’s flowers created obligations. In the fourth year, the neighbour could be owed a swarm. Even the honey came with paperwork.
Ireland’s first copyright row
Columba secretly copied a psalter. The ruling — “to every cow its calf, to every book its copy” — helped trigger a dispute remembered with considerably more drama than a modern cease-and-desist letter.
Brian Boru won and still lost
Brian’s forces won at Clontarf, but the ageing king was killed in his tent by the fleeing Viking Brodir. Medieval victory celebrations could be brutally short.
Poets were feared professionals
A bard’s satire was believed capable of ruining a reputation — and possibly raising boils. Noble families paid poets handsomely, partly for praise and partly for the reassuring absence of creative criticism.
You could collect a debt by fasting at the door
The custom of troscud allowed a creditor to fast outside the debtor’s home. Ignoring the faster damaged honour and created legal pressure. It was passive aggression with full ceremonial status.
Dublin’s Vikings built cathedrals
The Norse settlers became Christian merchants, church builders and enthusiastic traders in mead, weapons and furs. Viking Dublin contained rather more bookkeeping than the helmets suggest.
An Irish king had to look the part
Early kings were expected to be physically unblemished. A serious injury could disqualify a ruler — an unusually strict performance review for a job already involving swords.
A national epic begins with a marital argument about a bull
The Táin Bó Cúailnge erupts after Queen Medb and King Ailill compare their possessions and discover a prize bull is tipping the balance. Ireland’s great heroic saga begins, magnificently, with competitive household accounting.
The Rock of Cashel was a gift with strategy attached
A king handed the famous stronghold to the Church. The gesture was pious, but it also made sure a rival clan would not inherit it. Charity and excellent estate planning can coexist.
Some marriages came with a one-year trial
At Teltown, couples could enter a trial marriage and separate after a year if things did not work out. Medieval Ireland understood the value of reading the terms before renewing.
