What is recorded here
Architectural fragment in Kilboglashy is an architectural fragment in Kilboglashy, County Sligo, Ireland. A large piece of window tracery emerged during a graveyard clean up in 1995 and 1996 at St Fechin's church. The fragment probably came from the Augustinian abbey in Abbeytown, about 250m to the west. It joined other architectural pieces, a Romanesque font and a medieval graveslab recovered from the same graveyard.
A large piece of window tracery was found in the graveyard (SL020-109002-) of St Fechin's church (SL020-109001-) on the site of an early monastery (SL020-109005 -). This probably originated from the Augustinian abbey in Abbeytown (SL020-108----), c. 250m to the W. (M. B. Timoney 2002, 157-8, n. 14).
