UP TO 1000 YEARS OLD
Tully church and crosses situated in Laughanstown have always had an association with St Bridget who died in 523 AD. In the field opposite the church is a tall slender cross thought to be of the 12th/13th century. The east face of the cross bears an ecclesiastic figure that to many looks like a bishop but some think it may be a female figure and believe it to be of St Bridget, but due to weathering it is impossible to tell. The west face bears a head/mask, shown right this side is also badly weathered. Access has been greatly improved but I feel that the cross is more exposed to vandalism than it has been in the past but I prefer that it is not fenced-off.
