- About the same time as Lucan House, the handsome residence known as St. Edmondsbury which lies to the east of the village of Lucan on the northern side of the road to Dublin was built by the Right Hon. Edward Sexton Pery, who after a long parliamentary career was elected in 1771 Speaker of the Irish House of Commons.St Edmondsbury where we find in 1783 Pery entertaining the Viceroy, was erected on land belonging to the Veseys, to whom Pery had become nearly related by his marriage to a daughter of the first Viscount of Vesci.
