MULTI-PERIOD CHURCH & GRAVEYARD CROSS-SHAFT & BASE: BOHO CROSS

What is recorded here

Boho Cross stands in Toneel North, County Fermanagh, as a multi-period church and graveyard marker, its shaft and base still visible after centuries of rain and foot traffic. The name suggests a living memory rather than a dead fact, perhaps a family, a faith or a forgotten event that shaped the place. Its scheduled status acknowledges that the ground itself has spoken across time, even when the words are no longer written.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as MULTI-PERIOD CHURCH & GRAVEYARD CROSS-SHAFT & BASE: BOHO CROSS. Recorded period: E.CHRIST.. Recorded protection: Scheduled. The official map point was placed at the centre of the recorded archaeological site from the source map reference.
High cross, medieval period (circa 9th–12th century AD), associated with a multi-period church and graveyard. The Boho Cross is significant for its intricate carvings and as an example of early Christian art in Northern Ireland.
