What is recorded here
Stoup (present location) in Ardeash is a stoup (present location) in Ardeash, County Roscommon, Ireland. The damaged limestone piece, about 0.35m across, probably came from Rahara church one kilometre south and was later kept at Toberlargan holy well before moving to the Roscommon County Museum. Its single carved head represents one of three original figures that would have shown the Holy Trinity.
