Cross-inscribed stone in Cloone (mohill By.)

There are four cross-inscribed stones in the graveyard at the site of the early church and close to the cross-base. This slab (dims 0.47m x 0.04-0.06mm; H 0.41m) has a vertical line (L 0.24m) with three cross-bars (L 0.006-0.008m) incised in its E face beside the letter ‘G’.

This cross-inscribed stone likely dates to the early medieval period, associated with Christian activity in the area. Such stones may have served as markers, memorials, or ecclesiastical symbols, reflecting the spread of Christianity in Ireland.
