The National Monuments Service's description
This is one of two 17th-century graveslabs (see also GA098-111002-) within the church (GA098-111----). It is roughly rectangular in shape (L 1.94m; Wth at top 0.87m; Wth at bottom 0.69m; T 0.17-0.2m) and is dated 1642. It is dedicated to a priest. The inscription runs around the edges of the slab. The graveslabs were brought our attention by Dr C. Cunniffe.
