What is recorded here
Suppose someone passing Tynan Memorial Cross in Cookstown pauses to remember Katherine Tynan's father, then spots a cow straying from the dairy farm opposite. Respect can wait half a minute; the cow is heading for a patch of grass somebody else had plans for.
Carved stone Celtic style memorial cross, c.1910. Deeply incised strapwork, coarsely carved chevrons to side, and lettering to ring head. Curved low retaining walls.
This elaborately carved cross commemorates writer Katherine Tynan's father, whose dairy farm lay opposite. A strong example of the early twentieth-century Celtic Revival style.
