What is recorded here
Dominican friars in Tralee likely cut the chamfered edge before the medieval building fell into ruin. The stone reappeared inside a church rockery, turning a forgotten window into a decorative feature. Faith and forgetting crossed in that garden, giving the fragment a second life under new skies.
This record is for a chamfered pick-dressed window jamb (H 0.29m; Wth 0.3m; T 0.26m) which is built into a rockery in the garden of the modern Dominican church in Tralee. It is presumably from the medieval Dominican friary (KE029-236001-).
