Description
This grave cover, located approximately 30 metres east of the Church of St. Mary, is likely of medieval origin. It is made of magnesian limestone and features a chamfered rectangular base. The tapering ridged lid is decorated with a slender raised cross that extends the full length of the lid, starting from a stepped "pedestal" at the foot and ending with a foliated square cross at the head. Along the shaft of the cross, small trefoils are positioned at intervals, and the centre is flanked by carvings that appear to represent a clover leaf on the left and a heart on the right.
