Early years and career
He was educated at Lancing College in Sussex and then at the Royal Military College, Sandhurst in Berkshire. He fought in the Second World War and was wounded in action and later gained the rank of Major in the service of the Royal Inniskilling Fusiliers.
Major Lowry-Corry was serving with the Inniskillings in Malaya in 1949 when his commanding officer handed him a telegram addressed 'Lord Belmore'. It signalled that his bachelor cousin, the 6th Earl of Belmore, had died and that he, a great nephew of the 4th Earl, had succeeded to the earldom and the family seat of Castle Coole. He took immediate leave and returned to Ireland.[1]
Lord Belmore held the offices of Justice of the Peace and Deputy Lieutenant for County Fermanagh.
Castle Coole
During his time at Castle Coole the house was modernised, with electricity being installed and parts of the house open to the public by 1955. Seventy acres of land were also transferred to the National Trust while commercial woods were planted on the estate and a golf course was opened.[2]

He married Gloria Anthea Harker, daughter of Herbert Bryant Harker, of Melbourne, Australia, on 18 February 1939, and had issue:
