Inside the garden is this early Christian carved cross, dated to sometime between the late 7th and early 10th centuries. Sometimes called the Riasg Buidhe cross after ruined village a few miles away where the cross was found. It is a curious figure of a cross, with a head of Christ and a fish tail, and it has been set beside the Tobar Oran (St Oran) well.
