What is recorded here
Lying in the chancel of the Augustian abbey (TS068-013---) at Athassel, 0.85m from the E gable and 0.7m from the S wall. It is described by Maher (1997, 52) as a fragment of the lower portion of a slab (L 0.55m; Wth 0.3m; average T 0.18m) with no original edge surviving which 'bears a very lightly incised design, worn in places, which consists of the lower portion of an outline cross-stem terminating in a knop and three trefoils. Some of the latter are worn and incomplete. There is no evidence to suggest that the slab bore an inscription'.
