A (broad) : The shaft has a flat edge moulding and a pronounced protuberance where it turns into a transverse moulding, forming the lower limb of the cross-head. The lower limb contains a pellet-like scroll in the lower right corner. The transverse moulding below is roughly hacked. The upper left corner of the panel survives on the shaft and had roughly cut median-incised interlace, now damaged.
B (narrow) : Damaged.
C (broad) : The edge moulding is broad and flat, and turns into a transverse moulding at the top. The panel in the lower limb of the cross retains a box-point of very defaced interlace. The transverse border is very broad and all below it is lost.
D (narrow) : The lip of the lower cross-arm stands proud. The shaft below has a narrow edge moulding on the left; it is damaged on the right. The panel contains confused median-incised interlace.
What remains of the ornament suggests an Anglo-Scandinavian cross with panelled shaft.
