Architectural fragment in An Gróbh

Architectural fragment

What is recorded here

One of three large sandstone dripstones stands reused as a grave-marker south of the church in An Gróbh. The stone may have fallen from a roof, bridge or wall before people bent it to memory. Under that new duty, old building became a boundary for the dead, and the graveyard took a fragment of another structure into its own story.
