What is recorded here

This obliquely shouldered graveslab (L 1.52m; Wth across the top 0.75m; Wth across base 0.62m; T 0.1m) is to the W of the blocked doorway in the S wall of the nave of the church (GA084-001014-). Described by Macalister (1913, 217, XXIII, Pl. VIII, No. 9) as a ‘recumbent slab with a plain cross on a calvary’. There is a plough sock on the sinister side of the stem of the cross and a coulter on its dexter side. There is no inscription.
