Three non-adjacent pieces from the same flat, rectangular or slightly tapering grave-cover of Lindsey type, decorated in low relief and only on the upper surface. Stone 1a is from the centre of the slab, stone 1b from one edge, and stone 1c from one corner. On the evidence of other covers from this group that the herringbone pattern of the border standardly points towards the tapered foot, 1c is from the foot end and the others may be from nearby.

A (top): The cover's border is defined by a twin cable moulding in a herringbone pattern, and the central panel was occupied by three interconnecting rows of simple pattern F interlace, which produce a repetitive figure-of-eight pattern. The figure-of-eight units measure 18.5 × 11.5 cm (7.25 × 4.5 in): the layout and spacing of the lines and rows appears regular. At the cover's foot the terminals of the strands are cross-joined without having to allow extra space to fill the panel. The decoration stands as a squared U section against the flat cut-away background.

This is one of the interlace covers of Lindsey type discussed in Chapter V. It belongs to the sub-group (a) distinguished by its double cable or herringbone border (Table 6), and is typical in its good quality of stone, size of slab (at approximately 50 cm (20 in) wide), and accurate layout of the standard three-line pattern.
