Roman stone decorated slab
Only a short length of this slab survives. It is decorated with a rectangular panel framed by a moulded border, and two ornamental mouldings near one end; the upper one is a cable-moulding, of which only slight traces remain, while the lower is ornamented with a bead-and-reel design. The back of the stone has only been roughly dressed.
