What is recorded here
This record is for the original location of a ‘holy water font’ that was noted in the middle of Kilkeedy church (CL011-022003-) in the OS Letters (Comber 1997, 38). It was regarded as not being in its original position. Westropp (1900-1902, 138-9) observed that this font had spiral fluting. It went missing sometime after his visit (Swinfen 1992, 45).
