The National Monuments Service's description
Within the town of Rindown. A market cross is recorded in 1236 (Ann. Conn.) according to Bradley and Dunne (1988a, 65), but I could not find the reference. The raid is described in AFM vol. 3, P 285 and Ann. Conn. but with no reference to a market or cross. It remains unlocated, and its existence is unproven.
