Description: Kilnaruane, close to Bantry, County Cork, Ireland North-west face of the surviving shaft which belonged to a high cross which is described as follows by Peter Harbison in his work Irish High Crosses, ISBN 095-1782-371, p. 82: "The central figure on the east[sic!] face is an equal-armed cross. Beneath is a scene of the raven bringing bread to the desert hermits Paul and Anthony with, between them, a T-shape which could represent a table or the staff in the form of a T, which is an attribute of St Anthony. Above the cross is an unidentified figure raising its hand in supplication or prayer."
