‘There have been many death threats, but I’ll never stop’ – Randal Plunkett, Baron of Dunsany, on rewilding his family estate
How does land remain healthy when the cycle of life is ignored?”The 21st Baron of Dunsany made a radical decision. It’s a 21st century take on Sir Horace Plunkett’s slogan ‘Better Farming, Better Business, Better Living’. Broad shoulders, dashing jaw structure and an elevated stare comfortably characterise his blue-blooded stature as Lord Dunsany, custodian of the 12th century Gothic fortress, 40 minutes outside Dublin. I have one and for me, she will be the next custodian of this place.”Expand Close Randal Plunkett, 21st Baron of Dunsany. This is the biggest rewilding project in Ireland but Eamon Ryan seems to be preoccupied with cycle tracks and cutting down trees in Dublin.
