Maher Cross Posted by Picasa

The imposing Maher Cross standing at around six metres, carved from a single block of white marble with some of the most intricate masonry work I have ever seen. The detail of this is incredible, I have included some photos of the detail below.

It incorporates a curious mixture of Celtic and Catholic themes.

  • Love how you have pictured it against the sky ... it shows the impressive size ... and the cloudy sky just fits the mood.

  • Thankyou Ulf. It was a nice sort of early breezy Spring day.
