Within a graveyard (GA119-087002-). A flat triangular-shaped holed stone (L 1.53m; max. Wth 0.97m; T 0.1m) indicates the former presence of a slab shrine or monumental reliquary here. This stone is one of the end stones of the structure. The shrine probably held the bones of the of the founder of the nearby church (GA119-087001-). The circular hole near its base would have allowed pilgrims touch the relics or sacred earth within (Waddell 1996, 118, 129). Fragments of a similar shrine also survive in Eoghanacht on Árainn (see GA110-019001-).
