Asset Overview

Listed in the SMR as an 'Armorial Plaque', this limestone plaque is located in the early monastery of Ardcarn (RO006-103001-), also the site of Ardcarn parish (RO006-103002-). This plaque was erected by Cormac MacDermot, possibly a son of Owen Mac Conor Og of Aghacarra in honour of his wife Elinor Crean in 1688. It depicts a crucifixion scene above the crests of the MacDermot and Crean families in relief with largely illegible inscription in latin at the base. The composition of this plaque is very similar to that at [Cloonshanville](https://skfb.ly/6uwut)and as such is likely to be made by the same stonemason.
