Duncan McLaren has started a new series of posts in which he describes memoirs of Waugh’s friends as they might occur during visits to Castle Howard for this summer’s Brideshead Festival. The first posting relates to Richard Plunket Greene and is accompanied by photos of his motorcar as well as sights that might inspire him on the grounds of Castle Howard. It relies on Waugh’s diaries for the period as well as the writings of Robin Hilyard who is the current owner of one of Plunket Greene’s motorcars.
