Description: | A 17th-century copper-alloy crucifix; one face with Christ on the cross, on the other side is the Virgin Mary holding the Christ Child. The ends of the cross terminate in quatrefoils within which are letters, but only M can be identified. The heads of Christ and Mary are within the quatrefoils - these are surrounded by fleur-de-lis. The crucifix is worn and the top is broken where the suspension loop would have been, perhaps intended for a rosary. Similar example at National Museum of Scotland NMS KE8.
