The Old Denmark was a casual restaurant at 135 East 57th Street and later 113 East 65th Street on New York's Upper East Side. A 1964 review gave the restaurant one star and described it as "first and foremost a purveyor of Scandinavian delicacies for the retail trade but it also boasts one table where customers may dine on Danish salads. There is a seating capacity for eight guests at a time and the table is shared by other customers. The food served consists primarily of salads such as cucumber mushroom crab beet and herring but there is also liver paté and smoked salmon."

1611Best.-Nr. 3462Latin manuscript on vellum with large 6 in diameter suspended black wax seal of James I of England and autograph of Anne of Denmark dated July 23 1610 granting title to Corrodownan Manor in County Cavan Ulster to one John Browne Gent. of Gorgiemill near Edinburgh and his descendants during the Plantation i.e. colonization of Ulster under James I beginning in 1609. The colonists were settled on land confiscated from the Irish inhabitants following the conquest of Ulster 1594-1603 under James's predecessor Elizabeth I. The Plantation was intended to consolidate royal control of Ulster and repress rebellion by importing a substantial Protestant population. Like John Browne and indeed James himself many of the new colonists were Scottish. Some of these families went on to form the backbone of the Protestant Ascendancy in the province. John Browne and his heirs however were not among them. Sir George Carew sent by the king in 1611 to report on the progress of the Plantation noted that "he Browne . sent an agent who took possession set the lands to the Irish returned to Scotland and . performed nothing." The land was sold in 1613 to another Scottish colonist Archibald Acheson. Acheson's descendants were raised to the peerage of Ireland in 1806 as Earls of Gosford and still owned the property in the late nineteenth century. The first nineteen lines of the document grant the Scottish Browne the rights and privileges of James's English and Irish citizens. Especially notable are the requirement that the grantee maintain an adequate supply of arms for defense against the king's enemies lines 77-80 the attempt to encourage the growth of towns 74-76 and the ban on sale of the property to "mere Irish" or to anyone who failed to acknowledge the sovereign as head of the church thus excluding all Catholics by swearing the Oath of Supremacy 114-121.
