The National Monuments Service's description

Two small crosses in a green stone are in the graveyard just S of the church tower. This is a finial cross (Wth 14cm; T 10cm) in a latin form (H 0.28m; span 0.29m) with chamfered edges to the stem so that it is eight-sided. The head of the cross is missing and the arms have also been eroded.
