FRAGMENTS OF CROSS-SHAFT. A section of a cross-shaft (Figs. 305, 306), in this case of sandstone, is preserved within the modern Memorial Church. It is fractured and measures 2 feet in height by 1 foot 2 inches in breadth and 5 inches in thickness. On the front is carved in low relief the lower part of a figure clad in a tunic from waist to knees; the tunic is hemmed and has on one side a triketra. Legs and feet are bare or tightly clad, and round these a serpent writhes. The back of the slab bears two panels of interlacing ornament, the lower being serpentine.
