Font (present location) in Ballinacor West

A cylindrical block of coarse-grained granite (Wth 80cm across) with a sub-rectangular, steep-sided basin (48cm x 45cm across the top; 42cm x 36cm across the base; D 18cm). The rim around the basin is roughly flat and damaged along one edge. The base is quite rough, and falls slightly to one side where there is a drain hole at the edge of the basin, set at a roughly 45° angle. The hole is 4cm across within the basin, narrows to 1cm, and expands again to 5cm across where it exits the stone. Believed to have come from Castletimon Church (WI036-009001-) (See WI036-009004- for original location record). Compiled by: Chris Corlett and Claire Breen Date of upload: 8 June 2012
