(3) Lower part of a cross-shaft. Found in the churchyard at Whithorn.
The front and back of the shaft are each filled with a single panel of well designed, regular interlace.
This fragment, still in the pure Anglian tradition, is a late example dating from the end of the 8th, or more probably the 9th century.
Radford and Donaldson 1953b, 39.
