Notes: This is another superb stone which has suffered from much rough handling over the years, but it remains impressive. On the front is an equal-armed cross with square ends and centre, above a narrow shaft and oblong base, made up of panels filled with knotwork and key pattern ornament. This side is very worn, but various incised symbols and other depictions are evident. On the other side, a plain equal-armed cross composed of five square knotwork panels is surrounded by four pairs of symbols, some decorated with spiral Designs. |
