Appendix B item (Stones wrongly associated with pre-Conquest period)
Two fragments, Laughton-en-le-Morthen 1 built into the Norman north wall of the north aisle of the nave; Laughton-En-Le-Morthen 2 in the external face of the east wall of the chancel. Not seen by Collingwood who merely quotes Innocent (1910), whose wording suggested the possibility of a pre-Conquest date. Ryder (1982) identified no. 1 as either part of a grave slab or a cross of thirteenth-century date, and no. 2 as possibly Norman/overlap, reused in the fourteenth-century rebuilding of the church.
