Best Answer

romes influence in Ireland was tenuous at best even into the 18th century. the early church structure was monastic, not diocesan which would have tied it closer to rome. in the time of the reformation the link to rome was suppressed and it wasn't until 1793 and the establishment of a national seminary that formal vatican teaching began to hold sway.in any case the high crosses carried so many symbols and figures that picking out one as an excuse to ban them would have been pointless.
