The National Monuments Service's description
Located: 43m SSW of the round tower; look for the Moloney high-cross-style headstone - the inscribed stone is erected immediately N of the kerbed surround of this graveplot. Described by Healy (1972, 55) as a ‘slab of fine-grained mica schist 1.5m x 0.54m x 0.05m thick. The face of the slab is very smooth, and bears a faintly incised inscription in Irish characters; ÓR D. No trace of the rest of inscription remains’.
