What is recorded here

According to D'Alton (1838, 697), 'It appears from a document of 1496, that a cross was then standing in Crumlin'. Joyce (1912, 195) mentions the existence of a cross which stood in Crumlin Village in the 15th-century. Ball suggest that it may have stood at the junction of Dolphin's Barn and the Drimnagh Road. Not precisely located.

The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.

The map shows the centre of the officially named townland area, not the monument. The government record does not identify the exact monument point.
