Cruachan Aí • Rathcroghan

While Rathcroghan Mound has never been excavated, it has been carefully surveyed using a variety of techniques. The surveys revealed that under its relatively simple appearance today, it has a complicated, complex inner story - much like us all!

Among good company in this year @iaiarchaeo.bsky.social JIA. My paper explores phasing of 12/13th C. Buildings in Connacht and regional patronage of stonemasons. - Thanks to Dr. Kerri Cleary for all her editorial guidance. I have big shoes to fill as I step into the editorial role.

Even the small fragments can be beautiful

Something seems off about the windows at Kinlough

Spot the replica. One a modern carving from Co. Sligo the other from a 15th C castle in Co. Galway

Updated Survey Map for RSAI Bevir Fund survey of 12/13th C church sites in Mayo. The map shows the Diocese of Killala, Aconry, Tuam and Elphin which all include sites in Mayo, also included is Annaghdown, Clonfert and Kilmacduagh - Some additional sites at the borders

Well it's official this is what my summer looks like. RSAI funded research for Co. Mayo. Each dot represents a church listed in the 12/13th C. And I'm going to visit them all. Decided to add in Sligo and Galway as medieval diocese did not have modern boundaries so lots of cross over

When you're stuff behind a desk research can be a slog, until you get out in the field and those sites become real and your ideas and theories comes to life. Some exciting finds today (not pictured) here, but they mean big things for discussing High Medieval churches in Connaught

When you realise that the 'window fragment' is actually the shaft of a cross and there is decoration on it. Wayside Cross, Co. Roscommon

@neiljackman.bsky.social asking for a friend. Wondering if we can officially adopt all the Sheela-Na- Gigs or is it one monument per person ?
March 18, 2025 at 6:53 PM
@tjfinan.org just reading your RIA report from last year. Excellent work identifying potential quarry sites. Would you have a list of the publications/articles on the research
March 18, 2025 at 5:16 PM
@voxhib.bsky.social I'll be spending some time in Mayo looking at 12th C. Church architecture, any advise for field work in the wild NW. What Patrick sites should I include in the list of places?
March 11, 2025 at 9:23 PM
What do people make of this carving. Any ideas on what the hands are holding. Discovered on a farm building. On the 25 inch map, 19th C..
March 10, 2025 at 11:29 PM
Back to scanning, it's been a while. This lovely carving is from Roscommon at the CMF funded cloonshanville project @nationalmons.bsky.social

Delighted to announce that I have been awarded the Bevir Fund 2025 by RSAI. Looking forward to expanding my exploration of 12/13th C. Church remains to Come Mayo as part of ATU PhD study.

It's been a busy two years of research. Looking at 12th C. Connacht. These are just some of the stones I've identified (with a lot of help). Fingers cross they will be published next year.

I'm at the stage of writing when I am putting together images for publication. The amazing work from Ogulla by John Flynn from a grainy image and my digital edit of Emalgh from scan. - Roscommon High Crosses 12th C.
