Tomb

In the NE corner of the choir of the cathedral (TS061-025003-) on the Rock of Cashel. The lower portion of an effigial slab (H 0.48m; Wth 0.65m) which is incised with the pointed feet of a figure, possibly male, with the end of a long robe at the ankles. Based on the dating of other incised effigies, this is likely to date from the late 13th/14th century. Compiled by: Jean Farrelly Date of upload: 27 January 2012

Effigial tomb slab, medieval period. The slab is significant as a rare surviving example of early effigial sculpture in Ireland, potentially linked to the ecclesiastical and noble heritage of the Rock of Cashel.
