Brought to the Schoolhouse/OPW conservation store from Teach Molaise (SL001-001005-) in the Cashel (SL001-001001-) in 1989.
Slab (H: 0.375 m, W: 0.32 m, Th: 0.065 m) filled with an irregular incised ringed and slightly shafted cross. The arms extend beyond the ring (radius 0.07 m) and the horizontal arms and shaft extend to the edges of the slab. 0.02 m from the lower edge, is a horiztonal bar (0.132 m long) that traverses the shaft.
This could not have stood upright and the crudity of its execution raises the possibility that it was intended for burial with the body.
The above description is derived from the results of a survey of the archaeological monuments on Inishmurray undertaken in 1997-1999 and published in:
Jerry O’Sullivan and Tomás Ó Carragáin 2008 Inishmurrary. Monks and pilgrims in an Atlantic landscape. Volume 1: Archaeological Survey and Excavations 1997-2000. Cork. The Collins Press.
