Site of Cross — Report the wrong picture

What is recorded here

This cross was removed by persons unknown several years ago. Described in 1974 as 'The cross now seems to be gone' (OHAS file 1974). According to the OS Letters of 1838-40 'There was formerly a stone cross near to the stone [ninehole stone SMR OF017-018]; but the cross has been removed' (OS Field Name Books 1838-40, vol. 2). The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Offaly' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1997). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload: 23 May 2011

This remains an important historical record, but the official description says the monument is no longer visible or has been destroyed. The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
