Located against the S wall of the nave of St. Caimin’s church (CL029-009011-) and 1m from the E end. Noted by Macalister (1916-17, 152-3, no. 29) as of ‘tenth-century type’ and described as ‘a slab, measuring 3ft 9in (1.14m) by 2ft 6in (0.76m) bearing …a Latin cross with circular expansion at the centre, having a spiral pattern…in the middle of the circle… The terminal expansions are semicircular and contain key-patterns of common type.’ Macalister also notes that the cross is very similar to the Clonmacnoise type of this period and may have been produced by a Clonmacnoise artist. Apart from the flat decorated face, the slab is rough and unworked with an unusual shape, rounded at the sides and coming to a point at the top.
