On a NE-facing slope, in rough grazing with outcropping bedrock. Within a multiperiod church (KK030-004001-).
The church, which is aligned E-W, consists of a square chancel with a later nave occupying the space between the chancel and the residential tower (KK030-004002-) at the W end. There is a door connecting the chancel to the nave, into which this medieval graveslab (KK030-004004-) has been inset. The graveslab (L 1.88m; Wth at top 0.7m; Wth at base 0.66m; T 0.17m) is decorated with an incised interlace or bracelet cross-head within a double-lined circle and has a double-line border around the upper surface. The sides are moulded and include a horizontal band of nail-head decoration, though this does not continue on all sides.
There is another roughly rectangular medieval graveslab (KK030-004009-) in graveyard and Carrigan (1905, vol. 3, 336) mentions 'two uninscribed coffin-shaped slabs [KK030-004010- and KK030-004011-], with raised crosses' of 13th/14th century date in the graveyard, which appear to be in addition to the two graveslabs (KK030-004004- and KK030-004009-) identified during fieldwork.
