The sharply tapering lower limb of a cross-head.
A (broad) : The damaged modelled perimeter moulding is continued across the base of a panel. The panel is filled with densely woven interlace in a humped, median-incised strand. In the lower half it is probably pattern F, but the strands extend upwards at each side to form a register of turned pattern C. Some mortar adheres to this face.
B (narrow) : Scabbled.
C (broad) : As face A, though less of the pattern survives.
D (narrow) : Damaged.
The relief cutting is bold and well ordered. The density of the interlace suggest a late date.
