Socialites to servants: the women behind Lauriston

In the 700-year history of Lauriston, three women have owned the Castle and countless others have kept the place running, yet their stories have been told sparingly. From socialites to servants, philanthropists to pioneers, join us as we discover the women behind Lauriston Castle. Their lives, loves and losses are engrained in the place, waiting to be told. Niamh Lynch is Assistant Steward at Lauriston Castle. She is passionate about sharing women's history at Lauriston and uncovering different narratives. Why not make a day of it at Lauriston and have some lunch at Mimi’s café on-site after your lecture experience?
