What is recorded here

A small grave-marker (dims 0.28-0.32m x 0.07-0.1m; L 0.92m) has a latin cross (H 0.25m; span 0.22m plus) composed of three deeply incised lines on one face. This cross is truncated by the straight edge of the stone on one side and the stone also has a latin cross (H 0.12m; span 0.13m) incised with single lines and expanded terminals centrally placed at the narrower top of the same face. Beneath this cross are incised the initials MM. What might be an early cross-slab was reused as a late grave-marker and is now resting on a grave.
