What is recorded here

Half a meter tall and barely wider than a man’s outstretched arms, the cross-slab stands on the lower slopes of Lateevemore, watching Dingle Harbour through centuries of weather. Its equal-armed cross with expanded terminals cuts through stone that has absorbed rain, salt and forgotten prayers. To place a marker here was to claim visibility itself, forcing the dead into the same broad light the living breathe.

Templemanaghan/Teampall Mhanacháin or Teampall Geal (KE043-140001-) and its associated burial ground lie on the lower E slopes of Lateevemore and command a magnificent view over Dingle Harbour and the Milltown valley. Cross-slabs: (2) Fig. 151f This stone stands c. 8m to N of (KE043-140005-) and 2m to E of (KE043-1400010-). It is .67m high and .35m wide at base. Its W face bears an equal-armed cross with expanded terminals within a circle. See attached photograph courtesy of Amanda Clarke The above description is derived from J. Cuppage, ‘Corca Dhuibhne.
