Market Cross
On a small hillock in Tullaghan village. A plain upright Latin cross (dims of base 0.6m x 0.3m; H 3.21m) with slightly expanded arms is set in a chamfered sandstone base (dims 1.4m x 1.04m; H 0.87m). It leans slightly to the W and was erected here in 1778 according to the inscription on its base, while local tradition maintains that the cross was found at the foreshore of Donegal Bay c. 300m to N (Wakeman 1896, 299). Archaeological testing (00E0486) in the vicinity failed to recover any archaeological features (Halpin 2002), as did testing (03E0504) c. 50m to the SE across the road (Timoney 2006), or immediately (05E0502) to the NE (Timoney 2008). (Crawford 1907, 213 14; O’Connell 1937, 208-10)
