Carndonagh Cross & Pillars, Iveagh Peninsula, Co. Donegal
Location :
18 miles N of Buncrana on the R 244 road. The cross is found
beside the Church of Ireland church at the top of a hill overlooking
the town of Carndonagh itself. Not signposted.
Features :
The cross itself is unpierced of which I show here the east face
depicting beautiful interlacings above the head of Christ and 2
side pillars with human figures in relief. The stones are fashioned
out of red sandstone.
Date :
Possibly 7th. century A.D.
