History: | Okasha/Forsyth/2001, 308: `The stone is not recorded in any published account of the stones. However, in photographs possibly dating from the 1960s, preserved in the Dúchas archive (negatives no. 82, 83; see illustrations [pp. 305, 307]), the stone is shown built into the east interior wall of the church to the left of the plain free-standing cross, in the upper register of slabs, between slabs 47 [TOURP/19] and 48 [TOURP/15]. The stone presumably fell out of the wall and dissappeared before repair work was done to the east wall in 1986-87'. |
