Described by Harbison (1992, vol. 1, 139) as following ; 'the fragment of a head from a possible high cross that was stored in the National Museum of Ireland and which he described from a photograph taken by the Museum as a thin cross fragment from Monaincha, which represents the top of the head of a cross, together with a small fragment of the ring. The head has two raised mouldings indicating the outline of a cross within the head, while the broad ring has a raised undecorated panel. The other side is undecorated except for a grooved line. The fragment is said to have been brought back to Monaincha from the Museum, but there is no trace of it there now'.
No trace of this fragment of a possible high cross could be found within the church (TN018-001001-) and graveyard (TN018-001008-) at Monaincha.
