This ogham stone was found built into a low wall in the cathedral at Ardmore, Co. Waterford, by John Windele (FitzGerald 1854-5, 230-1; see WA040-008006-). The stone, which is broken at both ends, measures 0.86m x 0.30m x 0.05m (converted from Macalister 1945, 260, no. 264). The inscription reads ...]NACI MAQI [... (Macalister, ibid). A second ogham stone (WA040-008005-), found built into the E wall of St Declan’s Oratory and a third (cross-inscribed) ogham stone (WA040-008007-), found beside a grave, are both on display in the cathedral. (Moore 1999, no. 1481) 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.
