The National Monuments Service's description
A limestone plaque (Wth 0.31m; H 0.24m) with the date 1632 carved in relief is now built into the outer wall of the return of the present farmhouse, which is thought to be the oldest part of the house, but it might have come originally from either the nearby fortified house (ME052-004-----) or the tower house (ME052-005----).
