What is recorded here

Graveslab in St. Dominicks Abbey is a graveslab in St. Dominicks Abbey, County Tipperary, Ireland. The tapering limestone slab lies prostrate at the base of the south wall in the south transept, with a column base for the west aisle resting upon it. Its broken upper portion is missing, but incised lines preserve two double ringed circles, a lower semi-circular line between them, and a circular knop whose shaft of two parallel lines extends to a trefoil base outlined by a double incised line.
