What is recorded here
On an E-facing slope in undulating hilly terrain. A cross base is centrally placed within a square graveyard (TS079-007005-) defined by a stone wall. A later medieval church (TS079-007001-) is located c. 30m to the N. A high cross (TS079-007002-) is located to the NW and another to SW (TS079-007003-). The base (0.68m x 0.66m; H 0.2m) is all that remains of a high cross which was reputely stolen and lost at sea (Craig & Glin 1970, 8). The shaft for the cross is 0.23m x 0.29m with the S side broken away.
