Peel Castle Cross Slab (Manx Cross 195)
Archaeology
This small flake of stone was found during excavations north of St German's Cathedral in 1983. The carving is incomplete as a result of the flake becoming detached from a larger stone, but shows a portion of interlace involving at least five strands, one of which is decorated with lightly cut parallel lines. The entire design has been executed using a knife and is likely to be a trial-piece or graffito.
