ALEXANDER MURRAY CRAIGMILE

Location: St. Peter’s, Llanbedr y Cennin, LL32 8UY

A curious Celtic-style cross. It appears from the photograph that the type may be computer cut as it appears to have been squashed to fit on the upright. This could be a later addition to the original. The cross is outside in the cemetery and appears to be in a family plot or grouping of family graves.
