Description
Drumcliffe Cross.
The remains of a monastery founded here at Drumcliffe in the sixth century by St. Colmcille, includes the stump of a round tower on one side of the road, and two sandstone High Crosses standing in a graveyard on the other side, together with fragments of a third now in the National Museum in Dublin. The most important of these crosses, known as the Drumcliffe Cross, is 12 - feet high and is a short distance from the grave of W.B. Yeats. On the cross, Adam and Eve are ate the bottom of the shaft with a lovely knotwork representation of the tree of life. Further up is a scene of Cain slaying his brother Abel. The prancing lion in high relief is a majestic symbolization of Christ. Just below the crosshead is a scene of the miracle of Daniel safe in the lionÍs den. The figure in the center of the crosshead represents Jesus Christ in his glory in heaven.

Due to the hand casting and proprietary staining process, each of my plaques is unique. Each cross comes with a hanger embedded in the stone. The cross comes with a descriptive tag describing the original stone, explanation of the design or information on where the cross is located.
