Cross-inscribed stone in Dalkey Island

Cross-inscribed stone

What is recorded here

That is the kind of proof imagination resists. A creative mind wants to believe the chamber is complete, but completion is not the same as clarity. Something important is still missing. This is the gap where perception, memory or understanding fails. Show that gap. Do not decorate it.
Located in the NW of Dalkey Island. The inscribed stone consists of two crosses inscribed onto a rock outcrop to the W of the Church. One is a Greek Cross in a circle (H 0.25m). (Wakeman 1891, 701-702, Ó hÉailidhe 1973, 60-61). Compiled by: Geraldine Stout and Padraig Clancy Revised upload on: 25 June 2018
