Lezayre Vicarage Cross Slab (Manx Cross 83)

Archaeology

This fragment was found at the parish vicarage in 1879. Each face shows the remains of the head of a 'Celtic' cross within a ring. On one side, a device of four continuous triquetras occupies the centre and neck: traces of knotwork survive in the limbs. On the other side, a large central boss is decorated with a four-fold, double-beaded ring design: traces of knotwork again survive in the limbs.
