What is recorded here

In 1916 an Early Christian grave slab was found in the back garden of No. 97 Lower Mount Street (pers. comm. P. Healy). It is decorated on both faces with ringed crosses, indicating a date c. 9th-10th-century. It is in the National Museum of Ireland, Dublin (Swords, K. ed. 2009, 78, No. 11).

The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
