An Early Christian stone was found in April 1988 by the farmer Hector MacLean just outside the enclosed area of the old burial ground Cnoc na Cille. It is a rectangular slab, (possibly of quartzite) 46mm by 21mm, bearing in low relief an equal-armed cross in a circle 21mm in diameter. The cross is very similar to that on the slan from the chapel at Kilbride 1 kilometre to the east (NR34NE 6).
