The National Monuments Service's description
A trapezoidal graveslab (H c. 2m) with an elaborate floriated cross but no inscription is now inside the N wall of the church, although it was originally on the ground outside the N wall. It is locally attributed to the Farrelly family, erenachs of Drumlane. It is the only medieval memorial within a rectangular graveyard (CV014-028009-).
