Stone head in Manorland (1st Division)

Stone head

What is recorded here

Two stone heads are built into the N gable of a row of cottages just S of the bridge at Trim. They are probably carved on decorated corbels from the Franciscan friary (ME036-048025-), which was in the vicinity. This is a large, eroded stone head of limestone, and no features are distinguishable now. Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload: 10 July, 2019
15th- to 16th-century stone head, likely repurposed from monastic architecture; such carved heads may have had symbolic or decorative functions, though specific folklore or prehistoric significance is not recorded.
