Butler/Charteris Weekend, Cahir –

This took place on the weekend of 3rd & 4th September 2011 and included a lecture in the castle Great Hall by the Dean of St Patrick’s, Dublin, a tour of the Swiss Cottage, unveiling of plaque to the late Col Charteris at the AFC, town walk and Evenong in St. Paul’s where Jenny Davis sang three pieces by Mendelssohn, Mozart & Handel. There was a very good attendance with descendants of the Col present.

St Paul’s, Cahir –

As a result of the constant vandalism at St Paul’s camers have been installed. The installation was not complete when two were stolen and the system damaged. However, unknown to the culprit, the camera directly over him as he climbed the drainpipe was working and the matter is now in the hands of the Gardai.

Efforts are being made to enable the restoration and conservation of the surround at the Glengall Memorial in the churchyard.

The Bring & Buy in June yielded €660 for the restoration fund.
A further sale is planned for the Autmn/Winter.

Glengall Memorial –

This structure surmounts the Butler/charteris vault at St Paul’s Church of Ireland Parish Church, Cahir. The surrounding kerb was vandalised some time ago and it is hoped that with the original costings being reviewed it will be restored fully in the short time.

The work on the hall is completed and the bills are paid. A big thank-you to Rev Carter for his diligence in getting everything into order.
