Located on the roadside, opposite the entrance to Dunsany castle. On the limestone base of the Dunsany cross (ME037-017----), which is a rectilinear slab (L 0.86m, Wth 0.80m, T 0.08m) are a number of regular hollows. These form a cluster on the upper surface of the slab to the S of the cross shaft. There are three main circular, rounded, hollows, in the E (diam. 0.15m, D 0.09m); in the W ( diam, 0.17m, D 0.09m); the S example is smaller (diam. 0.03m, D 0.01m). To the S and E of these are a series of smaller shallow, artificial, cavities.
