What is recorded here

In the NE corner of a children's burial ground (KE064-010----). An upright sandstone slab (H 0.4m; Wth 0.15m; T 0.12m), orientated N-S, with a plain equal-armed cross-in-circle (D 3-4mm) inscribed on the lower half of the exposed surface of its E face. The arms of the cross terminate at the edge of the circle and the circle occupies almost the full width of the stone. This cross-slab was uncovered during a local graveyard clean-up scheme in the late 1990s. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Kerry. Volume I: South-West Kerry' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2009). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload: 30 May 2011
