On the W side of the town, N of Main Street. The medieval church of St. Nicholas of Myra (TS085-004006-) appears to have survived until c. 1813 when it was demolished and replaced by a C of I church (O'Flanagan 1930, vol. 1, 63). Incorporated in the internal face of the W end of the S boundary wall is a fragment of the upper half of a limestone slab (dims. c. 0.58m x 0.57m). It is decorated in relief with an interlace cross with unusually small fleur-de-lys terminals, a crescent moon on the sinister side and a sun on the dexter side. There is a latin marginal inscription in Black Letter script to a 'THOMAS NEAL… LI G…', the 'T' of Thomas is also decorated with an interlace pattern. (Farrelly and FitzPatrick 1993).
