- (continued from previous page)There is a large stone cross of Celtic design in the graveyard at Clonmore. It is made of granite. It is about nine or ten feet high. The top has been broken off. It seems to be a very ancient cross.
It is said when Cromwell demolished the ancient castle at Clonmore that his soldiers broke the top of this cross.
This is a drawing of this ancient cross. [drawing]Ancient cross in Clonmore graveyard of Celtic design.
