The National Monuments Service's description

Incorporated in a wall on the east side of Court Lane near the junction with St Anthony's Place is a fragment of a probable window sill (H 0.14m; Wth 0.10m). The stone bears some punch dressing typical of 16th/17th century date and the residual base projection for a mullion.

The attached image (GA094-120----_01.jpg) shows the position of the fragment in the wall indicated by a red arrow.

GA094-120----_02.jpg is a close-up of the fragment.
