Anglo-Irish aristocrat, Lord Henry Mount Charles, has died following a long and brave battle with cancer.
The owner of Slane Castle on Co. Meath, he was renowned as a world famous music promoter. Slane has hosted some of Ireland’s most legendary concerts including The Rolling Stones, Bob Dylan, Bruce Springsteen, Queen, and David Bowie.
A statement from his family says Lord Henry (74) leaves behind an extraordinary legacy as a passionate steward of Ireland’s heritage, dedicating his life to preserving Slane Castle and transforming it into a beacon of culture, music, and community.
“His visionary leadership and generosity touched countless lives, while his warmth, humour, and resilience endeared him to friends, colleagues, and admirers across generations,” they said.
Funeral arrangements will remain private while the family kindly requests privacy to “grieve and reflect on Lord Henry’s remarkable life”.
