The National Monuments Service's description

Situated within the graveyard (WA037-008003-) at Clashmore church (WA037-008001-). Power (1896b, 201) records a stone (H c. 0.7m; Wth c. 0.53m; T c. 6cm) shaped like a crude cross and inscribed with a cross that is used as a grave-marker without inscription. It is c. 20m NE of the C of I church that has been converted into a heritage centre, but it is unlikely to be ancient.
