Stone sculpture

Why this matters

Likely medieval in origin, the carving may reflect Christian traditions or local folklore associated with protection and spiritual guardianship. Its proximity to a fragment of a wayside cross suggests a possible liturgical or commemorative function along a former pilgrimage or trade route.

What is recorded here
