What is recorded here

Situated in the E half of the ‘Saint’s graveyard’ (CL029-009030-) on Inis Cealtra. This slab (L 1.65m; Wth 0.58m) is not depicted on Macalister’s plan of the graveyard (1916-17, pl. XV) but it lies between his no. 46 (CL029-009082-) and no. 51 (CL029-009087-),12.2m from the N wall and 4.06m from the E wall of the graveyard. There is an incised single-line cross near the edge of the slab at the W end. The line of the arms of the cross is not quite at right-angles to the shaft.
