Appendix B item (stones wrongly associated with pre-Conquest period)
Architectural slab. In church, set in south wall of tower. The panel carries a central figure with ?halo and spreading lower kirtle. In his left hand is a shaft topped by a Maltese cross which is thrust into the jaws of a free-style biped beast with curled tail and ear; the beast set sideways to the plane. In the figure's right hand is another cruciform (or foliate) -headed shaft. From his right arm hangs a linear feature. Probably a portrait of Christ Triumphant. The style of carving is clearly post-Conquest, and is dated to the twelfth century by Baxter (2004c).
