The National Monuments Service's description

A limestone face-corbel (Wth 0.26m H 0.21m; D 0.18m) from the graveyard of Oughteragh church (LE025-008001-), which was known as St Bridget’s head and played an important role in the pattern there, is now built into the outer face of the S wall of St. Patrick’s Roman Catholic church in Ballinamore. It appears to be male as it seems to have a beard, and is wearing a cap that expands into the flat top of the corbel. (Gallogly 1991, 6)
