What is recorded here
Six ogham stones are re-used, mainly as lintels, and a seventh is standing in the corner of the medieval parish church of Seskinan at Knockboy (WA013-034001-). This stone (1.32 x 0.23 x 0.27m, converted from Macalister 1945) is the lintel over the window at the E end of the S wall and was discovered in 1851 by G. V. du Noyer. Macalister (1945, 286, no. 293) read the damaged inscription as: …]RG[…]BRCEN[… (Moore 1999, 1495)
This stone has been studied as part of the ‘Ogham in 3D’ project undertaken by the School of Celtic Studies, Dublin Institute for Advanced Studies. To access details go to the following website: https://ogham.celt.dias.ie/search.php?ciic=293
