Bishopscourt Cross Site

Archaeology

The site at which a medieval cross formerly stood. It was of 10th or 11th century date and bore a runic inscription. It is thought to now be kept with the collection of crosses at St Michael's church, Kirk Michael.  The site where it is thought to have stood is now covered by a lawn and it has not been confirmed that the cross formerly stood there. At St Michael's Church, the stone is numbered 94 by a bronze plaque and interpreted as having served as a door lintel at Bishop's Court during the 19th century.
