Just under a metre tall and only six centimetres thick, it sits wedged radially into the wall of a circular enclosure, its long axis running roughly north to south, leaning slightly southward. On its eastern face, someone at some point carved a shallow Latin cross, the arms incised rather than raised, measuring 56 centimetres tall and 24 centimetres wide. The southern arm of that cross has been worn by weathering over time, the detail softened and partly lost.

The slab belongs to a category of early medieval monument found across Ireland, where a simple incised cross marks a stone that may have served a devotional or boundary purpose, or both. What makes this example quietly interesting is its position. Rather than standing independently as a marker, it is set into the fabric of the enclosing wall itself, placed radially, meaning its length runs inward and outward through the wall rather than along it. A second radial stone sits nearby in the wall to the south-east, and together the two may have formed the jambs or threshold of an entrance feature into the enclosure. The circular enclosure it belongs to is a distinct recorded monument in its own right. The cross-slab, then, was not simply erected and left; it was incorporated, used structurally, its carved face presumably still visible to anyone passing through or looking eastward from within.
