The National Monuments Service's description
According to Hunt (1974, vol. 1, 229) 'In a disused churchyard not far from the Cahir-Bansha road is a fragment of a massive slab with drapery carved upon it. Only the central part remains. The top and base are missing. It is possibly thirteenth or fourteenth century in date. It was seen in 1945, but on a recent visit, the slab was no longer visible'. The exact location of this monument is unknown.
