Turas Cholmcille Station 2

Station 2 along the Turas Columcille that is marked by a cross-pillar (DG080-029001-) on the foundation of a rectangular leacht (dry walled altar) on a prominent rock outcrop 50m west of Station 1 (Herity 1998, 18).

Linked to Saint Columba (Columcille), the site is part of a pilgrimage route associated with the saint's travels and spiritual influence in early medieval Ireland. The cross-pillar and altar suggest a place of prayer and devotion, reflecting the tradition of marking pilgrimage stations with sacred structures.
