Cronk yn How Cross Slab (Manx Cross 158)
Archaeology
This stone was found during excavation at Cronk yn How (IOMHER 0468.00) in 1928. This broken slab has been carved on both faces. One face bears a linear cross finely cut with the point of a knife; the horizontal bar, represented by two strokes, marks the beginnings of a panel over the head of the cross. A well-cut hexafoil cross set within a circle is drawn in the middle of the other face. To this, another hand has added an irregularly-drawn outer border. Above is a small plain cross in outline. An irregular linear frame has been added inside the edge of the slab, which has been overscored with another frame of zig-zag scratches.
