On a break in slope, off the crest of a W facing slope in hilly terrain, mostly pasture. A 17th-century limestone gravestone is situated at the E end of Tubbrid graveyard (TS081-054001-). The rectangular slab (dims. L 2.14m; Wth 1.12m; D 0.16m), lying prostrate, is orientated E-W. It has a margin (Wth 0.18m) defined by an incised line but no decipherable date or inscription. It is decorated with an encircled cross with fleur-de-lys terminals, the head of which is quite worn and the right side is embedded in grass. The shaft and calvary mount are slightly raised.
