Market Cross

Lantern slide of a market cross in Lisnaskea, Co. Fermanagh. Originally titled 'Lisnaskea Market Cross. West Face of Shaft.' The west side of the shaft has been carved with thirty-two small circular bosses arranged in eight straight rows of four. This cross was apparently placed in its place in 1841 when the marketplace was built. It is though to have resided in the confines of a church or monastery before this.
