What is recorded here

This medieval graveslab has been placed lying on a 20th-century grave plot in the graveyard (GA094-072003-) within the early ecclesiastical enclosure (GA094-072002-) at Roscam. The slab (L 1.16m; Wth across top 0.36m; Wth across base 0.24m; T 0.08m), which tapers from top to bottom, is broken in two pieces. The break is roughly across the lower third of the slab. It bears an incised Latin cross with a beautifully decorated head consisting of seven fleur-de-lis motifs radiating out from a central circular area. The shaft of the cross extends along the length of the slab. A holed stone (GA094-072007-) has also been placed on the grave plot, to the N of the graveslab.
