What is recorded here
Coomlogane is the present location for one of two ogham stones discovered in 1981 when quarrying uncovered a man-made underground passage within a ringfort. The stone, measuring 1.90m x .40m x .15m, acted as a lintel in chamber 2 before moving to Millstreet Community School and later Millstreet Museum. Its inscription reads downwards as COLMANN MACI COMGGANN, a name preserved from the dark passage where it once spanned the ceiling.
This is the present location for one of two ogham stones (see CO039-062004- and CO039-062005-) discovered in 1981 when a Man-made underground passage (CO039-062002-) within a ringfort (CO039-062001-) was uncovered during quarrying. The site was subsequently excavated and the two stones which acted as lintels in chamber 2 of the Man-made underground passage, were removed to Millstreet Community School. This stone (1.90m x .40m x .15m) was subsequently moved to Millstreet Museum where it is on display. The inscription on this stone was visible when the lintel was in place (pers. comm. B. O Donnabháin). It reads downwards in it’s current position as follows: COLMANN MACI COMGGANN. (Power et al. 1997, no. 7976)
