Summary[edit]
| Description |
English: Cross at Carnteel. This cross is most unusual, I last saw it over 40 years ago when I visited my uncle's farm, in fact I had forgotten where it was and had to get him to take me to it. It is located at the top of a hill above the farm, now owned by my cousin, to the south of Carnteel and is partly hidden by whin bushes. There is an inscription at the centre which reads, "Spero Meliora, This cross marks the place where Rev Dr. C.K.S. Moffatt was called by God to preach the gospel, 3rd October, 1924" He preached in America and when he returned on vacation, he made the cross out of reinforced concrete and hauled it up the field with a horse drawn sled. A testomony to its lasting construction is that the bush is heavy and is constantly being blown against it. The ancient monument authority was contacted about preserving it, but they said that it wasn't old enough to be important. 166679 |
