What is recorded here

This sheela-na-gig is set in the side-wall of St Flannan's Well (CL045-033013-). It is described by Freitag (2004, 134) as a figure ‘carved on a slab with the head cut off. The arms are splayed out with the hands joining over the pudenda. The legs are widely splayed, and the knees bent’. (Guest 1936, 115, No. 37; Andersen 1977, 149, No. 84) Compiled by: Caimin O'Brien/Michael Moore Date of upload: 6 June, 2012
