What is recorded here

Graveslab in Kinvarra (kiltartan By.) is a rectangular stone inside St Coman's medieval church, marked with a ring-headed cross and likely dating to the sixteenth century. It lies among two similar slabs, waiting for the dead or the living to remember why they buried someone there. The church still stands, but the names and stories behind the crosses have faded into silence.

Within the interior of St Coman's medieval church (GA113-139---). This is one of three graveslabs (see also GA113-139003- and GA113-139004-) recorded by Carey (2008, 26) ‘that may date to the sixteenth century. The three rectangular slabs are each incised with ring-headed, long stemmed crosses with stepped bases. One of these slabs (GA113-139003-) has been reused and bears the date 1818'. This graveslab is numbered 38 on the plan (ibid., 23, Fig. 2). Compiled by: Olive Alcock Date of upload: 9 April 2020
