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). One of three limestone graveslabs lying N of the W end of the church, aligned NW-SE. The most westerly (L 1.86m; Wth 0.87m; D 0.09m) is decorated with a faded square par saltire in its upper portion. The remainder of the slab is occupied by plain script in english in horizontal bands and in the margin (Wth 0.08m). The only legible part of the inscription reads: WHO DIED Ye 23RD DCBR…Ye 57. It is dated 1700 (Farrelly and FitzPatrick 1993).
