Vice Great Seneschal of Ireland

Vice Great Seneschal of Ireland is a ceremonial and functional role that operates under the authority of the Lord High Steward of Ireland - a historic office with roots in royal authority extending back several centuries. Traditionally held by the Hereditary Seneschal or Lord Steward of Tyrconnell, the Vice Great Seneschal serves as a deputy to the Lord High Steward. While not a formally titled office, the role includes representing the Lord High Steward when required, particularly at State occasions such as coronations, where duties may include bearing the Curtana (a Sword of state) and/or a White Wand.
