This is a Celtic-style memorial cross located in a graveyard. It is made of stone and features a two-step base supporting a large pedestal that has battered sides and a chamfered top. The cross itself has a square plinth adorned with Celtic interlace, which is also found on two panels of the shaft beneath a small figure of the crucified Christ positioned against the arms of the wheel cross. The arm ends have interlace square panels, and there is a gabled top piece with a roll ridge. A Latin inscription is present on the pedestal.
