A cross-slab (No.49) which is thought to be pre-Scandanavian and was found at the site of Keeill yn Chiarn chapel. It appears to be composed of altered clay schist.  It is now situated in the farmyard at Ballelby, set up against the gable of a barn at the house. The slab measures 87 x 28 inch, 4.5-5 inch thick. The inscribed cross is formed by five squares.
