Minister of State at the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform (Deputy Brian Hayes)

Works on the display of the medieval carved stone have commenced. Specialist stone masonry skills are necessary to complete the moving and installation of the carved stone on to the specially designed plinths.

It is expected that this work will be finished during this summer.
