What is recorded here
Not inidcated is a re-used stone head set high in the south wall of an 18th century church in County Meath, Ireland. It came from the medieval church, was broken or taken from its old meaning, and was made into a marker or decoration in the newer building. The place is small, but it records a common Irish act: to take a fragment from a lost church and give it a second life.
A stone head, re-used from the medieval church, is built high into the west end of the south wall of the 18th century church. (King 2007, 41)
