What is recorded here

Architectural fragment in Ballynakill is an architectural fragment in Ballynakill, County Sligo, Ireland. A featureless section of the east wall stands 8 metres long, 1.4 metres high and 0.9 metre thick. A pile of mortared stone, including a moulded jambstone, rests against the base of its west face. These pieces may form part of a window surround, possibly the lancet window mentioned by O'Rorke in 1889.
