Number (2) stands in a field 330m SW of the church (NR 213 630).
(2) Disc-headed upright slab of local Lewisian amphibolite-gneiss, 0.95 m in visible height by 0.39 m in width below the disc-head, which is 0.51m in diameter. On each face there is an outline-incised ringed cross with square sunken armpits. Whereas the side-arms terminate at the outer edges of the rings, the upper arms extend into a slight projection at the top of the disc. The cross on the NW face (b) has a shaft 0-25 m long, but the corresponding area on the SE face (a) is damaged, and its original form is uncertain (NW face: SSS, 2, pl. liii, 2; Lamont, pl. v c. SE face: Graham, pl. xvii, no. 55. See also ECMS, 3, 405).
