Ardcrony Church (TN015-015001-) South Window3D Model
A multi-period rebuilt limestone window in the southern wall of the nave of the medieval nave and chancel church ruins in Ardcrony graveyard, Co. Tipperary. A punch-dressed late medieval window-sill has been placed upside down and reused as the head of this window. This was probably done in modern times. The window has two different types of jambstones from two different building phases. The eastern jambstones or the cut stone surround on the right hand side of the window date from the 12th/13th century and the surface of the stone displays diagonal stone tooling visible as diagonal lines running across the surface of the stone. The jambstones on the left or western side of the window have a chamfered edge facing the window opening and probably dates from the 15th/16th-century. An L-shaped or set-square mason’s mark has been incised into the surface of the lowest west jambstone. This mark is the signature of the stone mason who was to be paid for his cutting and dressing of the cut stone window.
