The National Monuments Service's description
In St. Mary's graveyard (TS083-019020-), 15m NW of the NE angle of St. Michael's chapel and 7m N of the NW angle of the W annexe to this chapel, is an upright red sandstone graveslab. The slab (L 0.65m; Wth 0.43m; T 0.1m) is decorated with a raised three-armed cross with lozenge terminals. On either side of the cross-shaft there are initials, on the dexter side: I (or J) W and on the sinister side C C. The back of the slab has been very roughly dressed. The style of the lettering suggests a 17th-century date for this graveslab.
