What is recorded here

Graveslab in Inishcaltra OR Holy Island occupies the western half of the Saint’s graveyard on Inis Cealtra, lying nineteen point seven five metres from the south wall and three point three metres from the west wall. The undecorated stone measures one point four five metres long and zero point four five metres wide, marking a body rather than a legend. Macalister drew it in 1916-17 but never numbered it, leaving the occupant unnamed while the island keeps the shape of their rest.
