• GA086-096 Cross
  Description

  At a T-junction in the centre of Kilconnell village. This cross, a National Monument, was erected 1682 as a memorial to the Donnellan family. It is set on a rectangular limestone base (L 0.71m, Wth 0.69m) sitting on two tiers of steps which have been surrounded on three sides by a low protective wall. The cross has an octagonal shaft above which is a bulbous inscribed capital topped by a plain cross (H 0.52m), also octagonal in profile. Both the shaft and cross have the same tooling and may be 19th century replacements. The capital bears the following inscription: ORATE PRO D. JOHANNE / DONNELLANO EIUSQUE / FAMILIA QUI HANC CRUCEM / ERIGI FECIT, / 1682 - which may be translated as 'Pray for John Donnellan and his family who cause this cross to be erected, 1682'. Below this is carved 'Re erected by Revd W. Manning, P.P. Kilcll 1844'. The 'd' of Rev and 'cll' following Kill are in superscript characters indicating contractions for 'Reverend' and 'Kilconnell' respectively. Fr William Manning was parish priest of Kilconnell in 1844. Kilconnell Friary (GA086-001----) lies 160m to NE.
