Located at the SW corner of Templemolaise (SL001-001009-).
Pillar stone (H:<1.55 m, W: 0.74 m Th: 0.156) whose surface almost filled with an incised shafted cross (c 1.29 m by 0.62 m). The three upper arms taper slightly and are decorated with bulbous serifs (0.216 m max. width) each terminating in three points, separated by cusps. The shaft terminates in a large horizontal rectangle (0.36 m by 0.236 m) defined by an incised band (c. 0.046 m wide). This stands immediately adjacent to a large stone basin or bullaun (SL001-001010-) with which it may have had a particular association in antiquity.
