Inneenboy (Roughan Hill) Tau Cross at Clare Heritage & Genealogy Centre
Highlight • Monument
The cross formerly stood on a large boulder on Roughan Hill, 2 km (1¼ mile) northwest of Kilnaboy; but was later moved several times for safe-keeping, lastly to Clare Heritage & Genealogy Centre in Corofin, where it is now located. A replica has been erected at the original site near the road between Kilnaboy and Leamaneh Castle.

The cross was likely erected in the 12th century and served as an ecclesiastical boundary marker (termonn). Reportedly,
Kilnaboy takes its name from the Irish Cill Iníne Baoith, "Church of Baoth's daughter"; the cross is therefore the "Cross of Baoth's daughter." Saint Inneenboy was the patron saint of the Dál gCais.
