King Taejo ordered a house to be built for his daughter, Princess Sukshin (?-1453), and issued a Confirmation of Ownership document. The document details are inscribed on the stone: he offered a house for her daughter born in 1401, the year he was 70, sincerely hoping for her descendants to live in the house for generations. It also briefly describes the construction process and size of the house. Designated as Treasure No. 515 of Korea, the original of this stone engraving is currently housed in the National Museum of Korea.
