What is recorded here

Slanecastle Demesne in County Meath, Ireland, holds a female stone head in the north entrance pier and two fragments in the graveyard wall. The moulded capital and limestone window spandrel are small enough to touch, yet they suggest a lost building whose purpose has faded. They may have marked a hall, chapel or house now absent, leaving only shape and memory behind stone.

A female stone head (ME019-060004-) is set into the N pier of the entrance to the graveyard (ME019-060016-), and two architectural fragments are set in the graveyard wall nearby. These are a moulded capital (H 0.18m; Wth 0.32m; D 0.36m) and a limestone window spandrel (H 0.24m; Wth 0.34m) (Bradley and King 1985, 146). Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload: 11 June, 2014
