The story of Lord Brandon is an interesting one. Various legends are associated with the stone tower and cottage at the top of the upper lake in Killarney.
Very little is left of the old structures, with exception to a crumbling tower where, according to local folklore, Lord Brandon imprisoned his young wife after hearing that she had had an affair with Lord Melbourne, Britain’s future PM.
