3mi/5km northwest of Griánan of Aileach lies Fahan, on the shores of Lough Swilly. In the old monastic churchyard adjoining a modern church is a very ancient cross-slab (eighth century), with two crudely carved figures flanking a cross of elaborate interlace work; on one of the edges is a Greek inscription (a rarity in Ireland).
