What is recorded here

This broken graveslab (surviving L 1.09m; max. Wth 0.56m) is located in the nave of the Dominican church (GA084-001) close to the easternmost pier of the aisle arcade. Both ends and the top right side are broken. The slab is bevelled and traces of a raised cross are visible. An illustration by McKeon (2009, 50, Fig. 16: Slab F) indicates that the left terminal ended in a fleur-de-lis motif and a central roundel was also decorated with a cross. The stem extending below the roundel bears a bulbous protrusion and tendrils.
