The National Monuments Service's description
In the SW section of a graveyard (GA097-114001-). This font (H 0.37m; Wth 0.43m; T 0.28m) is embedded in the soil with the bowl (diam. 0.29m; D 0.06m) facing E. It is being used as a grave-marker. Its surface is smooth but the base is roughly hewn. It is likely to have come from the church (GA097-114----) that lies to the NE.
