What is recorded here

Bradley and Dunne (1992, 58) noted 'at least five uninscribed cross-slabs of thirteenth/fourteenth century date' at the friary (GA070-035001-) in Claregalway. It is possibly that they are referring to a number of tapering graveslabs: see also (GA070-035003-, GA070-035005- to GA070-035007-. This example is one of three set in the floor of the NW corner of the chancel; it lies 0.94m to the E GA070-035003- and 0.1m N of GA070-035005-. It consists of a tapering bevelled slab (1.4m; Wth 0.53m top; 0.37m bottom) broken at the top left corner. The upper part of the slab is decorated with a fleur-de-lis motif; a shaft extending from it runs through the centre of its lower part.
