The symbol-bearing slab of old red sandstone measures 2.05m x 6.9m (maximum width). It is roughly rectangular in shape with a pedimented top and is ornamented in relief on two faces. The front bears a Celtic cross containing interlaced panels and zoomorphic interlacing also. The back shows the temptation of Adam and Eve, the figure of an angel, 2 attenuated monsters and a cross, all encased within a 'jewelled' margin. The stone is entirely broken across on the reverse side and is clamped with a support.
