What is recorded here

A cross inscribed slab was found at this location, now in the National Museum of Ireland (NMI Register 1965:50). Compiled by: Claire Breen Date of upload: 29 January 2013
Probably dating to the early medieval period (5th–10th century), the cross-slab likely served a Christian commemorative or liturgical function, reflecting the spread of Christianity in Ireland. Such stones often carried symbolic, spiritual, or territorial significance, and may have been associated with early monastic sites or local saints.
