The National Monuments Service's description
Located to the SSW of the round tower; look for the Moloney high-cross-style headstone and graveplot c.44m SSW of the round tower. A graveslab (WI023-008047- and Healy's no. 194) stands 8.3m NE of the Moloney headstone and the architectural fragment stands immediately to its S. Described by Healy (1972, 57) as a ‘piece of mica schist 0.77m x 0.4m x 0.12m thick with a shallow rebate on one face. Cut through the rebated part is a rectangular perforation 0.06m x 0.04m. This may be part of a stone projecting over a doorway similar to the west doorway of St. Kevin’s Church (WI023-009----)’.
