Thanks Richard, it's now corrected it above.

Would like to echo Sven-Erik's thanks for that, Richard. Hadn't viewed this or most other SE-Fxx entries earlier.
I see the dates are incomplete and slightly inaccurate for this entry so here's what I have in my DB. Do you have any details of its fate in Ireland?
