What is recorded here

T-plan quay, built c.1810, comprising cut limestone roughly dressed quay set on plinth base terminating with cut stone steps to either side. Wrought-iron mooring rings to quay. Situated on southern shore of Lough Key.
This simple landing place is located in the former grounds of Rockingham Demesne, now Lough Key forest Park, on the southern shore of Lough Key. Its functional form is enhanced by its use of large limestone blocks which give it a robust quality. Its picturesque location, with views of the Temple to the west and Castle Island to the north, further enhance this idyllic setting.
