    There is a roadside cross in Ballyorley, (Boolavogue, ferns)
    In '98 it was deliberately croken by the "Yeos" but was mended afterwards.
    Many believe this cross was brought from the site of the old chapel near the Moate in Ballyorley

    Mr Walter Gahan, Ballyorley, Boolavogue, Ferns, Co Wexford says this cross was brought down from the site of the old chapel and fixed in its present position by the masons who built Boolavogue Chapel in 1845-1848
