What is recorded here
There are three pieces of stone sculpture embedded in the courtyard walls of Ballylin Demesne. The first piece is located on the N face of the N wall over an archway, it is a armorial plaque (OF015-008002-) with a coat of arms depicting the crucifixion with a date above of 1688. There is a second armorial plaque on the S face of the N wall with a coat of arms of three lions rampant (OF015-008003-). On the N face of the S wall there is a round arched hammer dressed limestone doorway (OF015-008001-) of late medieval date believed to have come from a destroyed church near Kilreghan cemetery (OF014-031001-) (Dunne 1874-5, 161-5). Above this doorway there is a poorly preserved coat of arms (OF015-008004-) with a large stone mortar which has four semicircular lugs (OF015-008005-). All these remains possibly came from the destroyed late medieval church (OF014-031002-) near Kilreghan cemetery.
