What is recorded here
Located in the ecclesiastical enclosure/cashel (SL001-001001-), 1.5 north of the west end of Templemolaise church (SL001-001009-)
Slab (H: <0.395 m, W: 0.35 m, Th: 0.045 m) incised with a shafted ringed cross (0.26 m by 0.152 m). Intersecting at the crossing the upper cross arms expand beyond the line of the ring (radius 0.04 m) and develop exaggerated triangular serifs (0.055–0.075 m wide). This occurs immediately in the case of the horiztontal arms but the veritical arm extends some distance beyond the arm before developing a serif. The serif of the shaft is distinguished from the others with a central sub-triangular section in false relief.
