The National Monuments Service's description
Located 4m S of the SW corner of a church (KD017-008----). Two small, plain, rectangular, unworked, earthfast flags (dims. H 0.5m; L 0.4m N-S; T 0.10m) stand in line a short distance apart, their long axes in line with the W gable wall of the church, and appear to be burial markers, possibly the graves of children.
