What is recorded here

Higgins (1987, vol. II, no. 67) records that this cross-slab is incorporated in the ‘cashel or enclosing wall’ (GA021-026022-) around the monastic site on High Island. His description is based on a photograph. The slab bears a roughly equal-armed three-line cross with D-shaped terminals and a central roundel. The right and left terminals have key patterns but the detail in the top and bottom terminals is unclear. The central roundel has a cruciform centre with a small boss in the middle. There are faint indications of a small roundel in the upper left canton of the cross. Not precisely located. Compiled by: Olive Alcock Date of upload: 5 May 2016
