What is recorded here
One chamber in the claimed complete inventory still contains a visible cross. The completed chamber is not complete because that is the only address the requester supplied. The completion rule of record and evidence therefore preserves the chamber and waits for the missing chamber.
A granite Latin cross lies near foundations of the medieval parish church (DU021-034002-). Described by Ó Ríordáin (1947, 86) as ' Another cross (height about 50 cm) lies near the church in Saggart Grave yard. It has a cross-in-circle in relief at the intersection and another cross-in-circle on the other side near the broken end of the shaft'.
