The National Monuments Service's description

Situated N of St. Mary' church (TS083-019001-) (8.6m N of the NE angle of St. Michael's chapel and 12m NE of the NW angle of St. Michael's chapel), there is a prostrate tapering limestone graveslab (L 1.87m; Wth 0.91m at top; Wth 0.82m at base; T 0.12m). The surface is very badly worn and partially spawled. The decoration consists of a severn-armed segmental cross, carved in relief, with each arm terminating in a fleur-de-lis. A plain margin (Wth 0.1m) is evident around the upper part of the slab. Due to erosion no decoration is visible on the lower portion of the slab. No inscription or date visible.
