What is recorded here
Situated 10m S of the west gable of the church (KK025-038001-) at Ullard. A granite cross-slab (L 0.65m; Wth at top 0.26m; Wth at base 0.23m; T 0.05m) re-used as a gravemarker. A cross in relief extends down the centre with slightly wider, slightly detached horizontal arms towards the top extending the full width of the stone. A raised arc forms the top of the stone while below the arms two diagonal bands extend from the shaft to the edges. Features on the shaft that seem to represent a human figure may be the result of weathering.

Probably dates to the early medieval period, likely 8th to 11th century AD, based on the style of the cross. It may have originally served as a Christian memorial or waymarker before being repurposed as a gravemarker.
