What is recorded here
Breakers and crossing seas. That is why the chamber is called Cross. The name does not claim to describe every feature in the room. It records the shape of the danger that met the traveller. The chamber is not a warning about you. It is a record of the road that must be seen before it is answered.
A small fragment of a churchyard cross (dims 0.37m x 0.21m; H 0.13m plus) with two rounded socket-holes in its upper surface has been identified by Gary Dempsey as a fragment of a churchyard cross, similar to that at Crucietown (ME005-094004-). The piece is from close to the base of the cross and on one side the two crossed feet of the Saviour with a diamond-shaped nail-head can be seen in false relief. It is probably late sixteenth or early seventeenth century in date.
