What is recorded here

In the blocked up S doorway of a medieval church (KD029-005001-). Portion of a limestone cross shaft (H 0.76m; L 0.25m; Wth 0.18m), set in part of a possible font (KD029-005007-), is carved to allow a narrow rectangular projecting collar girdle a mortice in its upper end. The sides of the shaft are decorated with slightly raised shields above fluted panels and there is an inscription, ‘Eustace, Lord Portlester, 1462’, in 17th-century style lettering.
