What is recorded here

The monastery of St. Comán (RO039-043006-) was centered on the site now occupied by the Church of Ireland church where there are some fragments of transitional masonry, and human bones were uncovered in Goff St. to the E c. 1917. A slab with an early inscription (RO039-043009-) found in the rectangular graveyard (dims c. 80m E-W; c. 45m N-S) is now in the County Museum (RO038-043024-), while a cross-slab (RO039-043016-) found more recently was moved to a position against the S wall of the present church in 2013. A rough-out of a cross-base (RO0239-043027-) is also in the graveyard defined by masonry walls. Also present are fragments of the masonry of a large Gothic window, and a cross-slab (RO039-043028-) with a crudely-incised latin cross and a single-line ring is used as a grave-marker.
