Appendix B item (stones wrongly associated with pre-Conquest period)
Fragment. Loose in vestry; no record of discovery. Only one face survives after later re-cutting and that is damaged on all edges. To the right of the remaining face are the remains of a border moulding. The only decoration consists of a relief carving of a thin arm terminating in an open hand. The hand was presumably part of a crucifixion scene. Though difficult to date on stylistic grounds, it is probably to be associated with another stone in the vestry, showing the torso and legs of a crucifixion, which dates to the thirteenth century (Taylor, H. 1906, 398, pl. (C) facing 397).
