This fragment of a 17th-C graveslab, which was brought to the attention of the Archaeological Survey of Ireland by Dr Christy Cunniffe, is at the E end of the S wall of the nave of the church (GA117-065001-). The upper portion of the slab survives (L 1.64m; Wth 0.78m) and it varies in thickness from 0.11m to 0.15m. The back of the slab is roughly flaked off indicating that it was intended to be recumbent. The letters IHS are visible within a lozenge that expands in the arms and shaft of the cross. Calvary based symbols and a fleur-de-lis are also visible. An inscription runs along the edges. Two other similar graveslabs lie within the church (see GA117-065005- and GA117-065006-).
