Description: Tomb in the north wall of the choir, very close to the east window. The effigy appears to be of the 13th century and is probably that of the founder Felim O'Conor, King of Connacht. The weepers, i.e. the panel reliefs, are from the late 15th century and are possibly coming from the tomb of Tadhg O Conor who died in 1464. See p. 414 in Lord Killanin and Michael V. Duignan: The Shell Guide to Ireland, Second Edition, London 1967. This is part of the national monument #362 in state care in Ireland.
