Dive into msdb: BackupSet & RestoreHistory

Simple question today: can we find out how recent the backup is that has been used to restore our production copy?

select top 1 b.backup_finish_date

from msdb..backupset b

join msdb..restorehistory r on b.backup_set_id = r.backup_set_id

where r.destination_database_name = 'MyDb'

order by r.restore_date desc
