An east-west line of four stones, generally 1.0m high, on the north side of St Winifred's Church, the westermost of which bears the vertical inscription:
VINNEMAGLI FILI/SENEMAGLI
Thought to signify 'of Vinnemaglus son of Senemaglus'. Probably 5th-6th century AD.
This and the remaining stones might have been set up in any period.

The stones, in particular the inscription, have been associated with an early medieval monastic complex (NPRN 400478).
