What is recorded here

Richard Shee is a memorial in County Kilkenny, Ireland. Perhaps a knight and his wife funded a guesthouse in 1582, leaving their names carved above the door while travelers forgot them by morning. Maybe the stone still holds the shape of hands that pressed it into being, waiting for someone to remember the warmth they gave strangers.
