Formerly situated at Toureen Peacaun monastery (TS075-023----) and currently located in National Monuments storage, Dublin. It is described by Okasha and Forsyth (2001, 285-6) as a small slab (H c. 0.21m; Wth c. 0.34m; T c. 0.05m) and is 'a slab of irregular rectangular shape, possibly complete, although damaged at the left edge. The back is plain. Incised on the face is an outline Latin cross, open at the bottom. Above this is a horizontal line of text with further letters below. The face is badly abraded, especially on the left side, and portions of the cross and letters have delaminated'. It is listed as Toureen Peacaun 38 (ibid.). It was uncovered during the 1987 excavation (Manning 1991, 211-12).
