    Yes it should be far better protected or moved and to a saver placed to prevent it from getting damaged and a new cut stone cross erected in its place, same as was done in Cong Co Mayo, those are very important items in the history of Ireland and are related to good, bad and hard times and thousands of stories

      It was moved years ago. Moved down the town out of the way of traffic.

    We had one of these crosses in Liverpool originally at the end of the medieval town, at the corner of Tithebarn Street and Vauxhall Road. Over time the road got busier and busier and when the road was improved the cross appears to have been removed. Strange thing about the cross is while the other long gone ancient crosses were not dedicated to saints this one was ... it was called St Patrick's Cross. Having a cross called that resulted in legends about St Patrick but Liverpool didn't exist back then it was founded by King John. Maybe the Hiberno-Normans who traded with Liverpool had something to do with it?

    "Is it a traffic hazard?" The traffic were the hazard.

      No. It is in a safer place not far away with a canopy over it to protect from acid erosion.

      @@madladpjl I answered your question. They didn't move it to the church after. Hence I wrote: No.
