The National Monuments Service's description
Located immediately W of W gable of Priest's House (29 August 2005). Described by Leask (1950, fig. 19g, 42) as ‘a ringed cross of granite, unpierced, with a short shaft, probably broken. It stands at the west end of the “Priests House" but was possibly, like St. Kevin's Cross, on the boundary of the ancient burial ground’.
