In 1920, Colonel Charles - Bury was nervous about a diplomatic conversation with the then British Viceroy of India. He wanted to convince the Viceroy to allow a trip to Peak XV, which was suspected to be taller than Mount Kanchenjunga. Back in his home in Ireland, at the Charleville Castle, a 400 year tree waited for his arrival. Charles - Bury though, got his approval and was making a fascinating discovery on the route to Peak XV. This week, in the fourteenth episode of the series Ireland Untravelled, we discover an ancient language unlike any other, its deep, fascinating connection with trees, and the need for us to constantly return to nature.
