Valentine Augustus Browne, 4th Earl of Kenmare KP, PC (16 May 1825 – 9 February 1905), styled Viscount Castlerosse from 1853 to 1871, was a British courtier and Liberal politician. He held office in every Whig or Liberal administration between 1856 and 1886, notably as Lord Chamberlain of the Household under William Gladstone between 1880 and 1885 and in 1886. ==Background== Browne was the son of Thomas Browne, 3rd Earl of Kenmare, by his wife Catherine O'Callaghan, daughter of Edmund O'Callaghan, of Kilgory, County Clare. He became known by the courtesy title Viscount Castlerosse when his father succeeded in the earldom of Kenmare in 1853.〔(thepeerage.com Valentine Augustus Browne, 4th Earl of Kenmare )〕 The Kenmare estate, Browne inheritated from his father, amounted in the 1870s to over 117,000 acres, predominantly in County Kerry.〔(nuigalway.ie Browne (Lord Kenmare) (Earl of Kenmare, Viscount Castlerosse) )〕 In 1872 the 4th Earl of Kenmare decided to build an Elizabethan-Revival manor house, called Killarney House, on a hillside with spectacular views of Lough Leane. The cost was well over £100,000. This house was the replacement for Kenmare House, built in 1726, as the seat of the Earls of Kenmare. The old house was demolished.〔http://www.proni.gov.uk/introduction_kenmare_d4151-2.pdf〕
