This is the tallest cross on the Isle of Man, standing nearly 4 metres tall, it was rediscovered in the 1840s having been reused in the doorway of a cowshed. Today the cross stands on a plinth at the side of the Four Roads roundabout between Port Erin and Port St. Mary (Isle of Man). This cross slab is thought to date from the 10th Century CE. The carving is very worn, you can manipulate the lighting angle to show details of the carving (but in this case it doesn’t make much difference) by pressing ALT on the keyboard while pressing the left mouse button and moving the mouse or 3-finger drag (on touchscreen\mobile).
