What is recorded here

This is the present location of the stone from Killeen, Co. Longford (LF020-03303-). Crawford (1913, 326; 1926, 125) recorded a cross-inscribed stone at the base of a low mound of stones within the SE quadrant of an ecclesiastical enclosure (LF020-033----). The stone was apparently originally rectangular in plan (present dims. 0.42m x 0.25m; H 0.90m). On one face are two incised Greek crosses within incised circles which are connected by a linear bar. Both crosses and the bar are defined by incised bands. (English 1971, 147) Compiled by: Patrick F. O'Donovan Date of upload: 15 April 2013
