Two Crosses, Margam
These 10th -11th century crosses were first used as a footbridge at the farm called Cwrt-y-Defaid and are photographed here in the grounds of Margam Abbey. The one on the right is known as the Cross of Ilci and the one on the left is known as the Cross of Ilquici. Amgueddfa Cymru has casts of the stones in its collection.
