Lying at the W end of the N aisle of the nave of St Mary’s parish church (KK026-010012-). Limestone tapering slab (surviving L 1.46m; Wth at top 0.57m; Wth at base 0.47m; T 0.11m) with a much worn decorated cross-head which appears to be a seven-armed floriated cross-head with a circular motif at the centre of the cross-head. It has an incised cross-shaft. The base of the slab is broken off. The surviving edges are chamfered (D 0.06m). There is a vertical split from the top of the slab to just below the cross-head on the sinister side.
