What is recorded here

One of five early medieval cross-slabs (LF013-045004-, LF013-045010-, LF013-045011-, 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 1.22m; Wth 0.62m; T 0.12m) is the largest of the series. It bears an incised ringed cross with decorated expanded terminals in false relief. The ring is decorated with rosette ornamentation. The inscription reads ‘OR DO AEIRECHTANE’ (Macalister 1949, vol. 2, 195). Compiled by: Patrick F.
