What is recorded here

Located: 14.3m S of the round tower. Described by Healy (1972, 53) as a ‘rough slab of mica schist 0.93m x 0.4m x 0.07m thick, bearing a Latin cross in slight relief’.

Unpublished OPW report, 1972.

Probably dating to the early medieval period, this cross-slab likely served a Christian commemorative or liturgical function, associated with the nearby round tower. The Latin cross may reflect the spread of Christianity in the region, though specific folklore or dedications are not recorded.
