The National Monuments Service's description
Situated on stones of the inner face of the NW wall of the retangular enclosure around Dungarvan Workhouse, now the County Hospital, close to the N angle. There are six stones placed c. 1m over the ground with images carved on them, probably with nails. The images are usually head and shoulder portraits of a religious nature.
