The National Monuments Service's description
Within the burial ground (LF023-113002-) c. 30m to the NE of the Cistercian abbey (LF023-113----). The shape and size of this possible graveslab suggest that it is of medieval date. No decoration is evident. It was probably similar to three other graveslabs (LF023-113004-, LF023-113010-, LF023-113011-) within the graveyard.
