Cross

What is recorded here

Broken cross, Monks' Graveyard, South Kerry. A foot of stone, perhaps less, remains above ground. The lower part may never reappear. What is lost is not concealment but time.
Cross described in 1996 as follows; 'This, the upper portion of a stone cross, lies on the SE end of the Monks' Graveyard [KE104A001046-]. L: 0.43m. W: 0.35m. T: 0.05m' (O'Sullivan and Sheehan 1996, 289, no. 948 (56)). 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. 948. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Revised by: Caimin O'Brien Date of revised upload: 10 March 2022
