Bishopton (Episcopalian Rectory), Lochgilphead. Fragment of graveslab found among paving in garden at SE corner of church; a corner with narrow channelled border with loops, and a small equal-armed cross in circle, outside border. Placed against church wall for safety; lower courses of church wall and buttresses show thin slabs, perhaps similar.

Stones removed from a church site, eg. Kilmory (NR88NE 13) or Kilduskland (NR88NE 7), descerated shortly before ?, might have been used for building another church.

M Campbell and M Sandeman 1964.

Part of a cross-slab of uncertain provenance, 0.38m by 0.32m; probably about 0.42m in original width. It bears an outline cross with square armpits, one containing a raised pellet in a sunken quadrant. At the centre is an equal-armed cross within a sunken circle (NR79SE 20.01).

I Fisher 2001.
