Cross in An Bhinn Bhán (uíbh Ráthach) — Report the wrong picture

What is recorded here

Half a metre of rough stone stands in a long mound of quartz and forgotten graves, its uneven arms reaching no farther than a child’s span. The cross never needed size to be remembered, only the patience of rain and the patience of people who buried their dead beside it.

National Monument No. 380. Stone Cross (KE098-029004-): In the NW quadrant of the enclosure are the denuded remains of an elongated stony mound that measure 11m NW-SE x 5.5m NE-SW and up to 1m high. On the surface of the mound are numerous quartz stones and a number of uninscribed grave-markers. Towards its centre is a roughly shaped stone cross, standing .6m high. It features a rounded head and short arms of unequal length. The above description is derived from A. O'Sullivan and J. Sheehan (compilers), 'The Iveragh peninsula: an archaeological survey of South Kerry'. Cork University Press (1996), no. 931. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload: 30 July 2013
