Double-Effigy Tomb and Cross
At the end of the 14th century, Rathmore Manor was held by the de Verdons before passing by marriage to the Cruise or Cruys (original spelling) family. Later Mary Anne or Marion Cruise became the second wife of Sir Thomas Plunkett (Lord chief Justice of the King's Bench in Ireland). It was held by the Plunkett family into the middle of the 17th century. The effigial slab now situated in the sacristy is believed to be that of Sir Thomas d.1471 and Marion who died later. Sir Thomas is depicted in full body armour and his loyal dog rests by his feet. Sadly the effigy of Marion is badly damaged. In an adjacent field to the church is the ivy covered Rathmore Castle, the residence of Sir Thomas and his wife Marion. The Plunkett family also held the castles at Dunsany and Killeen in Meath and built Dunsoghly Castle in Fingal.

Rathmore Church is a ruined medieval church and National Monument in County Meath, Ireland.[1][2] It was constructed by the prominent Plunkett living nearby at Rathmore Castle. A modern church 0.5 km to the north-east serving the area was constructed in 1844.[3] Archer and Smith describe it as similar in purpose to other churches constructed at Killeen and Dunsany.
The effigy of Thomas Fitz-Christopher Plunket is in good condition; he wears armour and a dog sleeps at his feet. Marion's is badly damaged.
