The National Monuments Service's description
Currently built into Kilcreen Lodge, which was built c. 1860 (Bence-Jones 1988, 166), there is what Craig (1973, 106) described as, 'a very fine late-17th century chimney-piece'. It came from Kilcreen House (KK019-021004-), c. 430m to the SW, which was demolished in the 1950s and a hospital built in the grounds in 1959.
