Summary: Improving Landlord

Key dates:

One of the best landlords in Ireland was Richard Edgeworth who ran his estate at Edgeworthstown from 1782 to 1817. Edgeworth never employed a land agent and collected the rents himself to get to know his tenants. He also assisted his tenants in improving their homes and their land.
