What is recorded here

In St Francis' Abbey (KK019-026101-). A portion of a limestone graveslab (L 0.69m; Wth 0.34m; D 0.235m) with two straight sides.  There is an incised inscription in Lombardic script along the longer surviving side. Part of the inscription is transcribed by Bradley (1980, 13, no. 43) as, ‘…IA CENTVM XL DIE’, though there is possibly an ‘S’ at the end of DIE. The inscription continues along the other straight side but is not clearly legible. There is no visible decoration.     Compiled by: Jean Farrelly
