What is recorded here
In Sligo Dominican friary (SL014-065008-), on display within an arched recess in the N wall of the chancel, with two other graveslabs (SL014-065032-; SL014-065033-).
Fragment of a late medieval graveslab. It would have formed the upper section of a trapezoidal slab. The carved surface is worn and damaged, and sections have sheared off. An incised groove defines the top edge, and the partial outline of an elaborate cross, with curvilinear motifs, within a circle, can still be discerned.
