This undecorated L-shaped fragment of a cross-slab (H 0.62m; Wth 0.33m; T 0.02m) was found on rubble outside the W wall of the church (GA021-026014-) on High Island. Of garnet mica-schist, it consists of the head and upper left arm, suggesting that the cross-slab was cruciform in shape. The fragment is missing (Fisher 2014, 222, no. 55, Fig. 7.9). (White Marshall and Rourke 2000, 157, no. 32) Compiled by: Olive Alcock Date of upload: 20 November 2015
