What is recorded here

In St Francis' Abbey (KK019-026101-). The lower portion of a limestone graveslab (L 0.515m; Wth 0.32m) inserted in the inner face of the E wall of the abbey, beneath the E window. The wall was refaced in the 19th-century, probably as part of the restoration work in 1868-71 (Bradley 1980, 14). It is likely to have been decorated with an incised floriated cross, though only the lower portion of the cross-shaft (Wth 0.02m) survives, terminated by a fleur-de-lis.   Compiled by: Jean Farrelly
