What is recorded here

The mid-nineteenth century Lough Eske Castle occupies the site of an earlier mansion of 1751 (Rowan 1979, 408), which was itself probably a rebuilding of an earlier 17th century house (DG094-005-), as is indicated by a surviving date stone built into the wall at the SE corner of an out-building in the yard behind the castle; the inscription, in false relief reads WH, IM and the date 1621.

The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
