Lying in the chancel of the Augustian abbey (TS068-013---) at Athassel, the centre point is 8.5m from the E gable and 3.9m from the S wall. It is described by Maher (1997, 53) as a tapering slab (L 1.55m; Wth at top 0.58m; Wth at base 0.46m; average T 0.13m) with portion of its base missing. 'The cross-head, which surmounts a plain outline shaft, is enclosed within an outline circle. It consists of an interlaced eight-armed cross with trefoil terminals. At the centre of this design is a simple floral motif composed of eight triangular segments. There is no evidence to suggest that the slab bore an inscription' (ibid.).
