The National Monuments Service's description
E of the vestry of St. Mary's church (TS083-019001-), 16m SE of the SE angle of the vestry and 16.3m NE of the NE angle of the vestry, there lies a prostrate limestone graveslab (L m; Wth 0.92m). The slab is quite worn however the cross-head appears to be a ringed cross with bifid terminals and emanating out from the angles are four diagonally disposed arms, with expanded terminals. The cross-shaft rests on a stepped calvary mount. There is a raised rectangular horizontal block between the cross-shaft and the margin on the sinister side. The plain margin surrounds the slab (Wth 0.09-0.14m). No inscription or date visible. It is very similar in style to the O'Donill/White graveslab (TS083-019024-) which was erected in 1592.
