| Notes: | From: Antiquities of Abbeys, Castles & c. & c. in Ireland, Vol. I J.J. Bt could be J.J. Barralet (ca. 1747-1815). If this drawing in its oringal form is by Barralet, it is the only record of his being in Roscrea, but his presence there is not surprising, as a work of his from Thurles in the same county is present in the Cooper Collection - 2122 TX (74) Title inscribed in ink l.c. on sheet Image within ink frame 18.7 x 13.1 cm. Watermark u.l. on sheet, too little of it is visible to make it recognisable Physical description: 1 drawing image 18.2 x 12.7 cm., on sheet 26.7 x 18.2 cm.
