tyrrell trust
Aims to
promote a better understanding of the two main cultural
traditions in Ireland by using the historical Grange Castle
site to illustrate the common bonds between Catholics and
Protestants. Funding is used to restore the courtyard gates
at Grange Castle.
"The Trust sees the
participation of American young people in this project
as being vital to its success, because American youth can
bring to Ireland the culture of a country where the differences
between Catholics and Protestants, indeed all religious
differences, have long been successfully resolved. At the
same time, by visiting Grange Castle, they can experience
the history which they have in common with both their Irish
and British contemporaries.”
