The National Monuments Service's description

In Kilmactranny graveyard (SL041-038002-). An inscribed stone cross, dedicated to Edmond Dermot Roe who died in 1682, was recorded lying to the N of the C of I church in 1995 (pers. comm. M. B.Timoney). A search of the graveyard in 2004 failed to locate this monument. A second 17th-century cross (SL041-038003-) stands in the field immediately to the N of the graveyard.

The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Sligo' compiled by Ursula Egan, Elizabeth Byrne, Mary Sleeman with Sheila Ronan and Connie Murphy (Dublin Stationery Office, 2005).
