Door to coach house in the return, north flank of the south gable infilled.

The centre gable, staircase block is now considered an 18th century addition as it blocks off an earlier entrance that extended the width of that gable (figure 1).

The Heraldic Achievement on centre gable shows the conjugal arms of Viscount Tyrconnel & his second wife Elizabeth Cartwright Viscountess Tyrconnel. They married in 1731 and so this offers a building date. The 'new' west door may be the original east door to the mansion, in place until at least 1739 (Edgar 2016 page 26).

Wyatville inserted the ‘turning down’ doors to the granaries on the first floor north and south gables in the early 19th century.

Figure 1 The boarded-up entrance uncovered in 2018 behind the central gable on the west elevation. The horizontal timbers and brick work relate to the later stairs inserted along with the gable. Previous access to the upper floors is thought to have been by external ladders.
