The National Monuments Service's description

Within Kilmurry church (TS078-53----) lies a recumbent graveslab inside the N wall, towards E end. A limestone slab, only the lower portion survives intact (L 1.28m; Wth at base 0.78m; T 014m including chamfered edge). Cross-head is missing, shaft survives resting on a stepped calvary mount with skull visible. Raised black letter script in marginal band. Remains of inscription reads: -AM CIERICVS PAROCHIAE DE KILMORY QVI OBIIT EF VXOR EIVS -------- QVORV-. Immediately W of this graveslab are two graveslabs fragments, including an upper sinister corner (TS078-053004-) and a upper dexter fragment (TS078-053005-) which are probably part of graveslab TS078-053003-.
