What is recorded here
In the grounds of St Patricks College, Maynooth. An 18th century Church of Ireland schoolhouse contains a medieval doorway (Wth 1.03m; H 2.4m) which is chiefly of granite and has a segmented fluted arch of five 'orders', and a medieval twin-light window with hood-moulding, of granite with limestone repairs. Both reputedly came from the Earl of Kildare's Council House (KD005-013----) which formed part of the Maynooth castle complex (KD005-015----) and which was demolished c. 1780, according to the Fourth Duke of Leinster (1891-5,321)
