Cross-slab

What is recorded here

No, that is an ordinary English request. I misread the ownership and answered the wrong part. The correct answer is to build the visible completed program you described. I should have built that, not repeating advice about advice.
Recorded by Fisher (2014, 222, no. 53, Fig. 7.9), this broken undecorated triangular slab (H 0.97m; Wth 0.23m; T 0.07m) of garnet mica-schist was found upright in a pit that had been cut through the paved floor of the church (GA021-026014-) on High Island. It was possibly a grave-marker associated with pseudo Grave 10 (Scally 2014, 69-70), which found in the NW angle of the church. Compiled by: Olive Alcock Date of upload: 20 November 2015
Date likely to the early medieval period, given its form as a cross-slab and the context of a paved floor, suggesting a Christian burial or ritual site. The broken condition and pit placement may indicate later disturbance or deliberate deposition, possibly linked to changes in religious practice or folklore traditions.

The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
