What is recorded here

Graveslab in Callan South lies at the W end of the N aisle of St Mary’s parish church, a tapering limestone slab preserving the ghost of an elaborate floriated cross-head. It is not a showpiece, but a buried edge of human memory: someone lived, died, was remembered, and stone carried that reminder into centuries of rain, prayer and forgetfulness.
