    Little fun fact about me, is that I was in the background of filming for this episode up in the Blarney Castle, with a friend of mine from Albama. I was showing her around the castle at the time when they started filming.
    Small world we live in.

    "Anglo-Norman", or "Hiberno-Norman", is an anachronism, and thus unhistorical. The term that was used to describe the 12th Century invaders of Leinster, and would remain in use until the late 19th Century, was "English". In the late 19th Century, in an effort to draw an analogy with the Norman invasion of England, the terms 'Anglo-Norman' and 'Hiberno-Norman' were invented, and even more ridiculous terms like 'Cambro-Norman' and 'Anglo-French'. These labels were unknown to the people living at that time, and for good reason: the Medieval English who invaded Ireland were no more "Norman" than the Norman invaders of England were "Norse". As the Norse intermarried with the Franks and became "Normans", the Normans intermarried with Englishwomen and became Englishmen. This process continued in Ireland where, by the 15th Century, most of the Old English were "more Irish than the Irish."

      I'm a historian of eighteenth century Ireland, so my expertise is limited in this regard, but I'll do my best to discuss what you posted.
      I wouldn't discount the decriptive terms Anglo or hiberno Norman as they are useful when making distinctions between the various Norman groups. Historians sometimes need to categorise these things to put together a clearer picture of the past. It doesn't do any particular harm. As a clumsy example, in the past, people would have called a sword, just that, a sword. Whereas in the modern day, we have a great many varieties of names for the various types of swords across history because historians need to organise the information in a way that is clear and recordable.
      I may well be incorrect on this point but I think the English court referred to themselves as Norman right up until the hundred years war. meaning that the use of the various Norman descriptives isn't necessarily problematic as they might not have been calling themselves English, just the rulers of England.
      I completely disagree regarding the "more Irish than the Irish" comment. A totally ridiculous sentiment that serves only to legitimise their conquest.

      @@Admiralofthedeeps just to clarify Edward I, who ruled from 1272 to 1307, learned English as a child from his tutors. In 1362, the Statute of Pleading made English the official language of British Parliament, meaning that lawmakers, including the king, spoke English well enough to conduct legal proceedings in it. It wasn’t until Henry IV, whose reign inaugurated the 15th century, that the first English king spoke English as his first language. Additionally the version of English spoken would be incompatible to us today as it wasn’t until the great vowel shift during the 16th century that a form of English which would be comprehensive to us was developed.

    blarney castle sometimes have two hour queues...,
    many many have bad backs but kiss the wrong area, as they really have to strech for the right stone, lol
    simon is a great historian,
    i would add that the cambro normans, also built manor houses and even married into the gaelic nobility, the fitzgeralds of kildare and o briens; brians,
    its a complex and fascinating history, unfortantely geoffry of monmouth was not only biased against the irish but clueless...being a norman chronicler of half welsh ancestry...
    the normans could not conquer the irish, they tried many many many times......far easier to marry irish royalty, nobility,
    the division of lands, castles and feuding was not unique to ireland, the normans originally were in wales before ireland...
