I've redirected this page from "Ruth Roche, Baroness Fermoy" to "Ruth Roche, Lady Fermoy" because it is my understanding that Ruth Roche wouldn't have been formally known as or referred to as "Baroness Fermoy" by anyone, since she was the wife of Lord Fermoy and not the titleholder herself. I wanted to revert back to the original title ("Ruth, Lady Fermoy"), but couldn't work out how to do this. Maybe someone else can? CassieBlue (talk) 22:11, 24 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Benjamin Britten[edit]

I came to this article expecting to learn about the subject's friendship with Benjamin Britten, and as a go-between between him and the Queen Mother. Is this significant enough to appear in the article? Ishboyfay (talk) 20:15, 17 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
