Formerly located in the N half of the graveyard (GA021-026026-) on High Island (see GA021-026043-). Recorded by Fisher (2014, 206, no. 12, Fig. 7.3), this tapering garnet mica-schist cross-slab (H 0.66m; Wth 0.36m; T 0.09m), which was probably reused, was found in situ forming the footstone of pseudo Grave 6. Only its E face was decorated. It bears an incised linear cross within a centrally placed ovoid shape that is defined by two incised grooves. At the junctions with the outer ring the cross-arms fork as oblique terminals. An incised roundel is visible in each quadrant. Linear Greek crosses are visible in the upper two. The lower right edge of the slab appears to have been chamfered to enable its insertion into a socket. A replica of it has been placed on High Island. (See also GA084-151017- for a similar cross-slab.) (White Marshall and Rourke 2000, 154, no. 22)
