Within the C of I church in Carrick-on-Suir, 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). In the interior of the church, on the wall of the porch, there is a limestone crucifixion plaque carved with the crucified Christ in high relief. The plaque was found in the SSE of the graveyard (TS085-004041-) and was probably the end panel of a chest tomb (late 16th/17th century). It is crudely inscribed with the name DAUGHERTY in capitals and the date 1710. There is other lettering on the slab but it is barely legible. The inscription and date probably relate to its reuse as a grave-marker. (Farrelly and FitzPatrick 1993, 22).
