What is recorded here

One can picture the field as a small chapel without walls, the cross marking the altar and the hidden well supplying the baptismal water. People may have touched the boss, drunk from the well or passed the arms without knowing they were entering a sacred room. The road took the water but left the stone behind, forcing the chamber to spill onto the roadside and continue its work among trucks, children and rain.

Portion of shaft, head and base of granite cross. Slightly protruding arms and small wheel, both outlined with low moulding. Boss on one side of the pyramidal base. Formerly in field known as 'The Church Field' (JRSAI 1907, 218, 236), now standing by roadside (see CW012-044001- for original location). Well (CW012-044003-), reputed to be holy, existed in same field but has been covered by road widening. Compiled by: Claire Breen Date of upload: 19 August 2011
