The National Monuments Service's description

On the E face of the W side wall of No.9 O'Connell St. A fragmentary limestone plaque (dims. 0.24m x 0.315m), decorated with a shield parted chevronwise with fleur de lys motifs and two over three roses. It is inscribed with the date '162?' above the shield and flanked by 'D' on the upper dexter side, the sinister side of the plaque is missing. Holland (1992, 200) suggests that as this plaque is is not compatible in size and design with the other White plaques from St. Mary's medieval church, it possibly came from a domestic context. (Farrelly and FitzPatrick 1993, 79).
