Drumcullin nr. Ballincur / Drumcullen

Described in the Journal of the Royal Society of Antiquaries of Ireland (1918), v. 48: 75fn), as part of a communication by E.C.R. Armstrong -based on a report by Olive Purser- to the Society: "Two fragments of old wrought stone have been placed on the block [i.e., the base of an early Celtic cross discovered in this site in 1917] at either of the socket forming a sort of rim to the hole. The pieces put together form the top of what is almost certainly an ancient font, about 14 inches square and 7 inches high." The entry for Drumcullen in the CRSBI [https://www.crsbi.ac.uk/view-item?i=15387] [accessed 1 August 2025] notes: "An early Christian site [...] The monastery here was reputedly founded by St Barrind sometime before 591 [...] with the remains of a single-cell medieval parish church [...] The surviving parts of the church appear wholly later medieval in date, but incorporate material from an earlier 12thc structure"; it mentions neither font nor stoup in it.
