Creevy Crucifixion Plaque (RO013-037- -- )

Description

In the grounds of the Roman Catholic church of Lisacul. A gable-shaped limestone plaque (Wth 0.33m; H 0.77m; T 0.18m) with a recessed panel on one face and which is damaged on one long side. It displays a crucifixion in relief, but no symbols of the Passion. Above the crucifixion an inscription reads 'GONE TO THE HOUSE OF PRAYER'. Below the crucifixion are four lines of an inscription. The first line reads 'GONE TO ADORE IN HIS HONOUR', the next two are illegible and th efinal line consists of a single word 'CROSS'. It is probably 19th century, and may have come from the old Roman Catholic church marked on the 1837 ed. of the OS 6-inch map c. 250m to the WSW.  This plaque was recorded by [Orla-Peach Power](https://sketchfab.com/orlapeach) using an Artec Eva handheld laser scanner. This survey was funded by the Roscommon County Council.
