What is recorded here

This rectangular bevelled graveslab (surviving L 1.08m; Wth 0.49m; T 0.1m) is located in the chancel of the Dominican church (GA084-001014-) close to the NW corner of the late 18th-century tomb of Lady Matilda de Bermingham. It is broken in two pieces and the base of it is missing. Traces of an incised Latin cross are evident: on the westerly portion the head and arms of the cross end in stylized fleur-de-lis ornament and on the easterly portion the stem of the cross is visible (McKeon 2009, 50, Fig. 14: Slab D).
