What is recorded here

This small crude cross (H 0.34m; arm span 0.47m; base Wth 0.13m; T 0.09m) is set upright at the centre of a stone altar (GA123-027----) and faces NNW. No decoration is evident. Masses were offered here in penal times (Glynn 1908, 193). The monument appears to be still regarded as a place of worship.
