This stands roughly at the centre of a circular mound (LH004-097004-). Excavations in 1966 indicated that this must have been relocated to this position within the graveyard in modern times. It consists of a squarish granite block with a flat top in which there is a socket for tenon, most probably for a high cross. A fragment of what appears to have been the remains of this cross was recovered during the restoration of a small portion of the graveyard wall c. 1997. The fragment (dims. 0.34m by 0.31m) consists of a portion of carved granite, representing the central part of a small high cross. On one side there is a prominent boss (diam. 0.1m), which stands proud of the surface. The decoration on the other sides cosnsits of a circular area (diam. 0.14m) defined by a ring with a central ‘cupmark’. This fragment is in Dundalk Museum (LH007-190----).
