What is recorded here
Crucifixion plaque in Dunsoghly marks a Dunsoghly chapel door with passion symbols, the year 1573, and initials for John Plunkett, Miles de Dunsoghley, and Sarsefield. It is not a distant church trophy but a household declaration: these names stood before God, loved this place, and wanted witness written in stone.
Above the door of the chapel (DU014-005002-) is an inscribed limestone tablet with symbols of the passion, a date of 1573 A. D. and initials J. P. M. D. D. S. i. e. John Plunkett, Miles de Dunsoghley, and wife's surname 'Sarsefield'. Verigated.
