According to Bradley this broken cross-slab is pre-twelfth century in date (Bradley et. al. 1985, 77). The cross-slab is located inside St. Feichin's church (WM004-035003-) where it has en attached to the N face of the S wall of the chancel. Only a quarter of a sandstone slab (dims. H 0.74m; Wth. 0.54m; T 0.12m) survives decorated with an elaborate cross within a border. Only one arm, the central boss and part of the stem of the cross remain. The central boss and the cup shaped terminals are decorated with a geometric interlaced patterns (Bradley et. al. 1985, 77-8).
