What is recorded here

This is the present location, at St Kilians Heritage Centre, of the Mullagh ogham stone. It is believed (local tradition) to have originated from an early church site at Rantavan (CV044-018001-). It was subsequently removed to the graveyard of 'Templekelly' at Mullagh (see CV040-044003-), and reused as a headstone positioned just W of the ruined church of Mullagh (Ferguson 1875, 303). The stone is limestone and measures 0.64 x 0.27 x 0.11m (Macalister 1945, 299). Macalister (1945, 300, no. 312) read the inscription as OSBBAR.
