Description

(The description relies on Collingwood 1911, 277–8). The bottom right-hand corner of a shaft.

A (broad) : The edge moulding is flat and very broad and survives at the right and along the base. There is a narrow moulding within it, and the remains of closed circuit interlace with a box-point and a symmetrical loop.

B (narrow) : Plain.

C and D: Broken away.

Discussion

Collingwood commented on the unusually broad edge moulding. It is possible that nos. 2, 3 and 4 are parts of the same monument whose base was split longitudinally.

Date
Late ninth to mid tenth century
