Notes: 

Chest tomb comprising a rectangular cover-slab with a moulded edge over six fluted legs and slate panels between. It is subsiding to the east. The tomb is badly damaged to the west' the top slab is broken in two western legs and the southwestern panel have fallen off. There is decoration on the top slab but it is too worn to make out. The inscription is taken from Buggy (1965, 38) as it is now mostly illegible.
