Inchinnan cross slabs and cross shaft is a collection of early medieval sculptured stones now housed in Inchinnan Parish Church in Renfrewshire, Scotland. The fragments comprise decorated stone slabs and a cross shaft that date to the early Christian period, likely between the eighth and twelfth centuries, representing important evidence of religious activity and artistic tradition in medieval Strathclyde. The carved designs characteristic of Insular Christian art demonstrate the skilled stonemasonry practised at this site, which held ecclesiastical significance during the early medieval period. These monuments reflect the broader tradition of carved stone crosses and marker stones that were erected at Christian burial grounds and monastic sites throughout medieval Scotland.
