Hairdwillagh Cross Site

Archaeology

An early medieval cross slab was found here. A cross slab was found here serving as a lintel over a door in a now destroyed building. It is coffin shaped and has beading carved around the slab. It also has an inscription cut upon it. It was taken to Lonan Old Church. Mr Stowell pointed out the site where the cross slab had served as a lintel. It was seen in Lonan Old Church and it bears an inset numbered bronze plaque No. 71. A notice dates it collectively with others as from the 7-9th century.
