This graveslab is one of three rectangular slabs found within the church, each incised with a ring-headed cross, the kind where the arms are enclosed within a circle, set on a long stem and a stepped base. That someone in the early nineteenth century chose to reuse a slab already several hundred years old, rather than commission a fresh one, gives it an oddly layered quality, the earlier carving absorbed quietly into a later act of commemoration.

The three slabs were recorded by Carey in 2008 and identified as potentially dating to the sixteenth century, though the reused example introduces a more complicated chronology. Ring-headed crosses with stepped bases are a motif with deep roots in Irish funerary carving, and finding three slabs sharing this design within a single small church suggests they may have been produced by the same hand or workshop, or at least drawn from a shared local tradition. The church itself, dedicated to St Coman, provides the broader medieval context within which these stones have rested, in some cases for five centuries or more.
