What is recorded here
Cross-slab in Disert stands in a Donegal graveyard inside an ecclesiastical enclosure, marking death with a carved Christian symbol. Local information says a small cross-inscribed slab was removed and is no longer accountably visible there. The place still holds the shape of that loss: a sacred boundary, a buried or forgotten stone, and the quiet anger of absence.
Located in a graveyard (DG084-001002-), which is enclosed within an ecclesiastical enclosure (DG084-001001-). According to local information, a small cross-inscribed slab was removed from the graveyard; its current whereabouts are unknown.
