Cross slab, Inishbofin, Co. Galway

Slab

Lantern slide of a drawing on a cross carved onto a slab, based on an artifact found on Inishbofin Island, Co. Galway. Originally titled 'Early slab-Innisbofinne' and labelled 'M1 44'. The original label on the slide is illegible, but has been copied in pencil across the top of the frame. The exact item this slide depicts could not be determined., but it is thought to come from the location of the St.Colman's ruins from monuments from both the 7th and the 14th century.
