What is recorded here

Graveslab in Blanchvillestown lies embedded near the south chancel wall of Kylebeg, its tapering limestone body marked by a broken corner and diagonal fracture. The incised cross wears fleur-de-lis terminals and a knop beneath its triangular head, suggesting careful craftsmanship rather than hurried burial. Whatever life ended beside that wall has surrendered its name to time, leaving only the shape of grief and the patience of stone.
