What is recorded here

Broken Templebreedy church stands beside Glannafeen, where a lost cross still marks the ridge above Lough Hyne. The surviving slab preserves part of a grooved cross with bifid terminals, though its top left corner and some of the cross are missing. What the complete cross showed, who cut it, and when the ridge first became a place of marking has gone quiet. The chamber of Templebreedy and the broken cross leave behind a gap large enough to wonder inside.

On the crest of a ridge to the N of the ruins of Templebreedy church (CO150-030002) and with restricted views over the S part of Lough Hyne. On a prostrate rectangular stone slab (L 0.7m; Wth 0.38m; T 0.18m), now missing its top left-hand corner, is a portion of a grooved cross (shaft L 0.28m; arms L 0.36m) with bifid terminals. Part of the cross is missing where the stone is broken. The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 5' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2009).
