What is recorded here

This tapering graveslab (L 1.37m; Wth across top 0.52m; base Wth 0.3m; T 0.12m) is the second in a group of four, moving from N to S, at the W end of the aisle. A broken example (GA084-001038-) lies to its N. The slab is decorated with a floriated cross and bears no inscription. Other similar graveslabs (See GA084-001034- to GA094-001037-) in the church are dated to the 13th/14th century (McKeon 2009 50, Fig. 19: Slab I).
