Cross-shaft fragment found in the N wall of the church; now lost. It measured 0.51m by 0.33m in incomplete width and appears to have been carved in relief. On one face (a) there was a standing figure in a knee-length garment, wearing a short sword obliquely at waist-level. He held in the right hand a spear and in the left hand a small circular shield. The other face (b) showed the figure of a horse and rider, moving to the right but with little visible detail except for the reins.
