The faint cross carved on the east face of the slab.


This small slab carries an inscribed cross on its east face.
It took some time to find it, because the grass in the graveyard was high. It stands on the burial of a certain Patrick Ryan.
The slab has a height of 50 centimetres, a width of 37 centimetres and a thickness of 10 centimetres. The inscribed cross measures 40 by 17 centimetres.
The slab was almost completely covered with dry moss. I had to remove it to make the cross stand out.
