The National Monuments Service's description
Limited excavations in 2001 on Friar St revealed the foundation level of a possible medieval structure beneath the footpath, c. 40m from Main Street and on its south-western side (Gregory 2003, 379). It measured 2.2m in length, ran parallel to the existing street frontage and protruded from it for 0.4m. The wall comprised two courses of dressed limestone and lime mortar-bonded stone. Works in the past had disturbed the north-western part of this structure.
