Ara
Ara anepígrafa in medium-to fine-grain granite, gathered near a dwelling, in the village of Penedones, during restoration.
It shows traces of inscription, or because it was never recorded or why it was deleted in later reuses. A part of the forend is excavated, and it is possible that at that time has been lost to eventual epigraph.
Are visible remnants of white lime around the monument and note the absence of logs and fóculo at the top, which seems to confirm their re-use. Highlight your magnificence, with a topping and a capital base well chunky.
