What is recorded here

A schist stone (H 0.77m; Wth 0.20m) with a circular head (diam. 0.32m) is now in the National Museum of Ireland. One side is plain but the other is decorated with a ringed cross of elaborate interlace in low relief. Viking influence and a tenth century date are ascribed to this stone (Harbison 1988, 62-3).
