What is recorded here

This graveslab (L 1.8m x Wth 0.12m) is a mishapen Rathdown-type stone inscribed with a crooked central band on which are four cup marks. The spaces each side of the band are fitted with horizontal lines and herringbone pattern. It has been secured to the W face of the buttress on the S wall of Rathmichael church (DU026-050002-) (Ó hÉailidhe 1973, 56). The church lies on the E slopes of Carrickgollogan.
