The following account of its discovery is recorded by Timoney (2008-9): ‘In April 2007, on a visit to Killaraght graveyard. Co. Sligo, to check an 18th century headstone the author discovered an Early Christian cross slab which had been reused as a grave memorial in recent times. The Old Red Sandstone slab was lying on the ground in front of the Goldrick family grave plot in the old section of the graveyard. The slab measures 99cm long, the upper two thirds is about 40cm in width with a maximum thickness of 8.5cm. The left side of the slab is complete but parts of the right side have been cut or broken off. The inscribed cross with T-shaped terminals measures 14.5cm long and 21cm wide. The cross is cut in a V-section groove with a maximum of 1.5cm in width and a depth of 0.5cm. The terminals are U-shaped in section.’
