Cross-inscribed stone in Tailtin

Cross-inscribed stone

What is recorded here

Inside the north-west angle of the Teltown graveyard stands a damaged headstone bearing a crudely inscribed cross with expanded terminals. The stone measures seventy centimetres long and forty centimetres high, while its cross reaches thirty-five centimetres in height and span. This small marker holds the memory of someone buried beneath Meath soil, reduced now to a rough shape and forgotten name.
