The National Monuments Service's description
Built into the E side of the window in the S wall of Church Hill church (SL032-195001-) is a single block with Romanesque motifs including beading and cross-hatching (pers. comm. M. A. Timoney). This stone was probably a voussoir from the arch of a doorway of an earlier church.
