  1. "Dunnamaggan Cross" made of free-stone, stands about eight feet from the north side-wall in the Church-yard of Dunnamaggan. The carving on top is faded but people say that it represents the Crucifixion. On the front is a carving, two feet high, which represents a bishop dressed in vestments. He has a crozier in his left hand & his right is raised in benediction.
