The upper and lower faces of this long rectangular block are roughly worked flat, while the back surface is roughly finished and traces of mortar remain on the sides of the stone. The outer face of the corbel is very eroded and is worked with what appears to be an animal's head, its mouth slightly open, set against a large quarter-hollow moulding.
