Cross-inscribed pillar in Inis Ní

This limestone cross-slab (H 1.08m; Wth 0.22m; H 0.08m) is located at the SE end of a much-ruined leacht (GA050-011003-). It is decorated with a simple grooved Latin cross (H 0.34m; arm span 0.17m). The top of the cross is rounded and the arms end in roughly T-shaped terminals. The base expands slightly (Higgins 1987, vol. II, 281, no. 12).
