What is recorded here

Graveslab in Kilfenora: A trapezoidal stone lies on the cathedral floor, its broken surface marking a life that once breathed beneath the roof. The remaining cross base and floral squares suggest a craftsman who believed death should still receive beauty. People may have walked past it for centuries, unaware that their footsteps repeated an old prayer.

Situated on the floor of the chancel of Kilfenora Cathedral (CL016-015002-). Not listed in the SMR (1992) or the RMP (1996). The lower portion of a trapezoidal graveslab (present dims. L 0.63m; Wth at base 0.3m; Wth at top ((mid point of slab)) 0.34m). The base of an incised cross remains. Two simple lines form the shaft while the base expands to two squares each with a different floral-like motif. A second medieval graveslab (CL016-015020-) lies nearby to NE. Some of the other rough slabs lying in the chancel may also be medieval in date. The following image has been uploaded: CL016-015021-_01.jpg View of graveslab from W.
