Date of upload: 8 September 2016
Likely dating to the early medieval period (7th–10th century), the stone features a narrow-shafted cross, a common Christian symbol from the Insular tradition. The three discs on the cross shaft may represent theological or symbolic elements, though their specific meaning remains uncertain.
