What is recorded here

This is the present location for this stone that was formerly in the graveyard at Tully (see DU026-023020-). It consists of a granite block (0.74m long, 0.53m wide and 0.20m thick) with a cross-in-circle carved in false relief. The carving is not central to the stone and comprises an equal-armed cross set within a circle (diam. 0.33m). Part of the circle and one of the arms of the cross are defaced. One long side and the two ends of the stone have been dressed to a straight edge whereas the other long side and the rear of the stone have been left rough. There is no sign that the stone has been broken at either end, implying that this is its original intended shape and size. The stone is in the care of the Office of Public Works.
