What is recorded here

An ongoing conservation programme at Jigginstown House (KD019-033001-) was informed by a detailed survey of the building and some archaeological excavation (Licence nos. 01E1109 and 02E1603: www.excavations.ie). An upcast bank was found, set against the south side of the building, providing a terrace overlooking the large sunken garden (KD019-033003-). A limekiln was built into the bank and was used, perhaps, to provide the lime needed for the internal plaster.
