Cross-inscribed stone in Ceathrú An Chaisleáin

Cross-inscribed stone

What is recorded here

A stone which acted as a door lintel to a cabin in this townland and later as a gap-post was inscribed with a plain cross. It was removed to the National School in Ballyferriter but is now missing (information: D. Ó Conchúir). It was reputed to have originally come from Teampall Bán (KE042-052----) in Caherquin townland (O' Sullivan 1931, 523). The above description is derived from J. Cuppage, ‘Corca Dhuibhne. Dingle Peninsula archaeological survey. Ballyferriter. Oidhreacht Chorca Dhuibhne’ (1986), no. 816. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
