It was most gratifying to see the Viscount Brookeborough installed by Her Majesty The Queen as a Knight of the Garter at St George's Chapel, Windsor, on Monday, the 18th June, 2018.
Lord Brookeborough's grandfather, the 1st Viscount (the third Prime Minister of Northern Ireland), was himself appointed a Knight of the Garter in 1965.
In 1997, Her Majesty appointed Lord Brookeborough a Lord-in-Waiting.
He has been Lord-Lieutenant of County Fermanagh since 2012.
The family seat is Colebrooke Park, County Fermanagh.
The only other Knight of the Garter living in Northern Ireland is His Grace the Duke of Abercorn.
