The National Monuments Service's description
A limestone plaque bearing four coats of arms originally located in the Court, was removed to the threshing shed of a farmyard at Wyestown (DU007-027----). All the buildings at the Court as indicated on the 1927 ed. OS 6-inch map have been removed. There is a local tradition that there was a convent here which was linked to Gracedieu (VBSCD 1994).
