What is recorded here

Recorded by Fisher (2014, 214, no. 34, Fig. 7.6), this redeposited kite-shaped cross-slab (H 0.51m; Wth 0.31m; T 0.03m) of garnet mica-schist was found within the stepped NW passage through the ecclesiastical enclosure (GA021-026022-) on High Island. Its foot and left edge are broken. One face is decorated. It bears a Latin cross, partly in outline and partly in low relief, around a linear cross with a central roundel. The latter encloses an incised linear Greek cross. The side-arms have D-shaped terminals and the upper and lower ones are forked. There are also linear Latin crosses in the lower quadrants of slab.
