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 formed the lid of a coffin tomb. It is complete, but fractured into two pieces by a roughly central horizontal break. A groove is carved along the edge of the slab. The decorative surface of the slab is worn, but traces of an interlace-like design are visible in the upper section, and the shaft of a cross extends centrally down the length of the slab. It is similar in style to another slab (SL014-065035-), also on display on the nave wall Attached image: SL014-065037-_01.JPG Compiled by: Anne-Julie Lafaye Date of upload: 29 September 2020
