What is recorded here

This is the record for the original location of CO006-129----, an armorial plaque carved with the Fitzgerald coat of arms. It is now inserted in the N-most wall return of a semi-circular gate wall of 19th-century appearance, the entrance to a late 18th-century country house, Castle Lishen (CO006-020002-). When the plaque was first recorded, it was said to be lying in the garden, and to have previously been placed over the front door to the house (Grove White 1905-25, vol. 2, 110); it may have originally come from the adjacent tower house; its exact original location is not known.   Compiled by: Anne-Julie Lafaye
