Utilised as an ornament in the garden of 'Ballinlig House' some 200m NW of the site known as 'The Abbey Field' (SL019-043001-), it consists of a stone basin (diam. 0.5m; H 0.3m) with a central circular depression (diam. 0.3m D 0.17m). The upper surface is decorated with a scalloped rim and a series of shallow indentations. That this could be interpreted as a font is possible although the abscence of a drain hole would suggest that it might have served as a free-standing benniter. Also preserved in the garden is a small stone fragment recorded as having been found close to the 'Abbey Field'. It is of cut stone (dims. 0.09m x 0.06m x 0.04m) with two circular depressions on the opposing surfaces (diam. 0.04m x D 0.01): its function is unknown.
