This tapering graveslab (L 1.74m; Wth at top 0.6m; Wth at base 0.29m; T 0.12m), is in the nave of the church (GA084-001014-), opposite the console on the S side, and was described by Macalister (1913, 215, XVII, Pl. VIII, No. 10) as a ‘slab with floriated cross much defaced, with the lower end broken away.’ He transcribed an inscription, in three lines, on the sinister side, as ‘FOR THE VSE OF OWEN CRAW(ley) AND CATHERIN MONAGHAN AND (their) POSTERITY 1686’. A plough sock and coulter are visible on the dexter side. It is most likely that this slab dates to the 13th/14th century and was reused in the 17th-century when the inscription and occupational symbols were added. (Bradley and Dunne 1992, 39; Mckeon 2009, 51; Fig. 21: Slab K)
