The original location, in the old graveyard (WI005-070005-) at Burgage, of a recumbant granite slab (dims. L 1.68m; Wth 0.75m, tapering to a pointed end) carrying an incised Maltese cross within a double-circle, and shaft terminating in a small cross, which was moved to its present location (WI005-047003-) in the new cemetery c. 1939, in preparation for the Liffey Resevoir Scheme.
