What is recorded here

One of five early medieval cross-slabs (see also LF013-045004-, LF013-045010-, LF013-045012-, LF013-045013-) attached to the W face of a display feature that has been constructed on the line of the E gable of a church (LF013-045002-). This cross-slab (H 0.42m; Wth 0.3m; T 0.04m) is the smallest of the series. It bears the lower portion of the stem of an incised cross with a decorated expanded terminal in false relief. Of the original inscription, only the letters THIR survive (Macalister 1949, vol. 2, 196). Compiled by: Patrick F. O'Donovan, Caimin O'Brien Date of upload: 6 June 2013
