This cross-slab is in the nave of the abbey (GA069-001013-). It was recorded by Higgins (1987, ii, 336, no. 62, Fig. 58) who described it as a fragmentary recumbent limestone slab (max. L 1.28m; max. Wth 0.27m; T 0.2m) with traces of a multi-line cross. None of the original edges or any of the terminals survived. The cross design was irregular – on three of the limbs it consisted of four lines, while on the fourth it was of two lines. Near the widest end of the slab there was a semicircular feature or boss. The cross-slab probably dates to the 13th century (pers. comm. Dr J. Higgins, 23 October 2014).
