What is recorded here

This is one of eight cross-slabs (see also GA110-023013- to GA110-023017- and GA110-023019- to GA110-023020-) associated with Leaba Bhreacáin (GA110-023001-). This example forms part of the W kerbing of the leaba. Only a fragment (H 0.5m; Wth 0.41m; T 0.12m) survives. It bears two incised lines, which are part of the shaft of the cross. An inscription running across the shaft reads OR[ÓIT] AR MAINACH. Petrie, Crawford and Macalister incorrectly recorded this cross-slab at Teampall Bheanáin (GA119-009001-) (Waddell 1973, 19, no. 8). (Higgins 1987, vol. 2, 327, no. 53) Compiled by: Olive Alcock Date of upload 9 March 2016
