upon it in relief an equal limbed trefoil hollow angled
cross set over a shaft rising from a stepped
base. ^ The trefoil occupying the whole angle from
the outer extremities of the limbs. The slab measures ? 5 ft [feet] 9 1/2 ins. [inches] in length,
1 ft [foot] 3 ins [inches] in greatest breadth and tapers somewhat
to the lower end. The cross with shaft end
base has an extreme length of 5ft. [feet] 3ins. [inches] and
a breadth across the arms of 11 ins. [inches].
Another slab also carved with a hollow
angled equal limbed cross on a shaft lies
adjacent. It has been broken across but
the lower end of the slab which does not
rise from a stepped base lies near it.
[Margin] (omit)
Towards the west side of the churchyard
and opposite the gate lies a slab measuring
3' 9" by 1' 11" by 7" showing very distinctly
in slight relief a circle 7" in diameter and
one half of what might be mistaken for
the spectacle symbol. The marks are of
natural formation.
On an upright slab, sunk to a great
extent, standing 35 ft. [feet] in from the gate of
the churchyard on the West, and a little
to the North of a position ex adverso of it
is rudely incised a galley measuring
7 ins. [inches] by 9 ins. [inches].
