   (A local Song continued) “Will I make a sailor out of your son, Ted. With a nice silk coat and a little cocked hat, O, Mrs Magrath wouldn’t you like that.” When Ted came home he had no legs, Instead he had two wooden pegs, “O, were you drunk or were you blind? When you left your two fine legs behind. Or was it walking across the sea, When you wore your legs to the stumps away” “O, I wasnt drunk nor I wasn’t blind, But a cannon ball on the 4th of May, Came and blew my two fine legs away” “Why weren’t you cute? why weren’t you cute, To run when the French began to shoot, Sure I don’t think your my son at all, He’d run away from a cannon ball” Signed. Eamon Tiernan.

The local tenants were obliged to help at the work. The turret is about 60 feet high. Inside it, is a winding stone stairs. On each of its 84 steps was engraved the name of one of Aylmer's tenants.
