This holed stone has been placed lying on a 20th-century grave plot in the graveyard (GA094-072003-) within the early ecclesiastical enclosure (GA094-072002-) at Roscam. When recorded by Wakeman (1895, 286) it was standing upright in the graveyard, about 50m to the SE of the church (GA094-072001-). The part of the slab (L 0.66m; Wth 0.43m; T 0.13m) that would have been visible when it was upright is rectangular in shape but the lower section is roughly subtiangular. The hole (diam. 0.09m) which pierces the stone is set off-centre to the top right. A medieval graveslab (GA094-072006-) has also been placed on the grave plot, to the S of the stone.
