What is recorded here

Located in Sligo Dominican friary (SL014-065008-), on display on the N wall of the nave. Trapezoidal graveslab, probably late medieval/early modern in date, which would have served as the lid of a coffin tomb. Though complete, it is fractured in two sections by roughly central horizontal break. An incised groove is carved along the edge of the slab. The surface is greatly weathered, but traces of a foliate or interlace-like design carved in low relief are still visible in the upper left section. Another graveslab (SL014-065037-), also on display on the nave wall, is very similar in style. Attached image: SL014-065035-_01.JPG Compiled by: Anne-Julie Lafaye Date of upload: 29 September 2020
