A ninth century (or 10th or 11th according to Pevsner) graveslab inscribed thus:
HOC TUMULUM RETINE[T]]
MEMBRA PUDIC[E] [MUL]IE[RIS]
GUINNDA CAR[AE] CONIU[GIS]
QUAE FUIT IPSA [IB]IDEM
A rough translation being: "This tomb holds the remains of that faithful woman the dear wife of Guinndas who was herself [born?] in this same place".
The slab is housed in the church of St Clydawg and is located in the corner of the behind the pulpit.
