Thorbjorn's Cross Slab (Manx Cross 139)

Archaeology

This fragment of a broken slab was found in the 1870s at Rhynne farm. Only part of the inscription survives, which runs up the centre of the face, and translates as, 'Thorbjorn raised this cross...' Rhynne farm lies in the parish of Marown, Glenfaba; the fragment is dated to the late medieval period and a 3D scan of the cross has been made available online by Manx National Heritage.
