The National Monuments Service's description

At the NE angle of the parish church of Cam (RO048-099001-) is a graveslab (dims 1.8m x 0.67m) which is damaged at one corner and has a raised panel (dims 0.93m x -.59m) against one edge of the stone. This panel has a latin cross (H 0.88m; span 0.38m) created by the excavation of the corner panels. There is no inscription but there is a small cross and an IHS monogram at the crux. It might be 17th century in date.
