The National Monuments Service's description

In the South Tipperary County Museum. Three sandstone Romanesque fragments were uncovered during the excavation of the medieval church at Kilcash (TS078-036001-) (Sweetman 1984, 36-43). These consist of a base of an engaged column (L 0.18m; Wth 0.1m; E 0.1m), the rounded base (D 0.05m; Wth 0.08m) has a angled moulding to one side and a horizontal groove (Wth 0.02m) near the top of the base, the latter is quite denuded; a length of moulding (L 0.16m; Wth 0.08m; D 0.09m) decorated with four pellets and a fragment of moulding (dims. 0.17m x 0.1m; 0.06m) decorated with a roll-moulding (Wth 0.025m) and parallel row of pellet-moulding (Wth 0.02m). The stones came from the E end of the nave, close to the SE angle and had been reused in the construction of a later tomb (ibid. 41).
