Situated in the NW corner of the graveyard (WX041-008012-) associated with the present St. Munna’s Church of Ireland church that is probably on the site of the medieval parish church (WX041-007016-). The head of a granite cross is set on one of its side-arms in what was probably its original granite base, but it is unlikely that this is the original position of the cross. The head (H 1.41m; Wth 1.36m; T 0.22m) has a solid ring with a moulding around the edges of both faces and it is decorated with five simple bosses on each side. The base (dims of bottom 1.36m x 1.2m; dims of top 1.07m x 0.92m; H 1.18m) has a ringless cross in false relief with one central boss and expanded terminals on the arms on one of the larger panels but is otherwise plain. (Harbison 1992, vol. 1, 168)
