Description
Standing cross of probable C14 date.
MATERIALS and PLAN: constructed of ashlar and square on plan.
DESCRIPTION: it comprises a chamfered plinth, some 2.5m wide, which is less visible at the south-west corner due to the slightly rising ground. It is surmounted by a two-stepped base and a socket stone; the shaft and head are missing. The socket stone is square at the base, chamfered above broach stops, and rises to an octagonal section. The tenon of the cross-shaft still lodges in a square mortice at the centre of the socket stone. There is a mid-C20 plaque on the north side of the base but the inscription is no longer clearly legible.
