What is recorded here

A large collection of cross slabs, grave slabs, decorated stones and three effigies (See KD022-029023- and KD022-029027- to KD022-029057-), dating from the 10th to the 17th centuries have been placed in St. Brigid’s Cathedral (KD022-029005-). KD022-029046-: According to Bradley et al. (1986 vol. 3, 235-6), a broken limestone fragment (H 0.5m; Wth 0.36m; T 0.10m) is decorated with a heater shaped shield with a cross emblazoned with five scallops, the arms of Bishop Wellesley, and possibly originally part of his tomb. A partial marginal Gothic-lettered inscription in false relief reads: ‘SINIII ?EAAEY’. (Fitzgerald 1896-8c, 314) Compiled by: Gearóid Conroy Date of upload: 7 February 2012
