What is recorded here

Graveslab in Killelan stands upright on the south foundation line of a Kildare church, its granite surface catching light across a carved Latin cross. The slab rises seventy-five centimetres, broad enough for two palms to span its width, while faint roll-moulding survives along the top and right edge. It may have marked a buried body, waited for a name now lost, or simply witnessed the church being built. Either way, it remains present in the graveyard, steady beneath the sky and unchanged since people first walked past it.

On the foundation line of the S wall of the nave of a church (KD038-006----) in a graveyard (KD038-006001-). An upright granite slab (dims. H 0.75m; Wth 0.49m; T 0.29m) carries a Latin cross carved in relief and traces of a possible roll-moulding survive along the upper edge and right hand side of the slab.
