This ogham stone (KE053-016002-) formerly stood against the W side of a N-S field wall in a field on the W side of the main Dingle to Lispole road, near the old Dingle railway station: it is now in Músaem Chorca Dhuibhne, Baile an Fheirtéaraigh. It acted either as a lintel or as a jamb stone to a souterrain (KE053-016001-) in a destroyed rath (KE053-016----) in the same field (Windele 1848, 395-7; Brash 1879, 216-7). The stone is 1.08m high, 0.36m wide and 0.24m thick. The inscription occupies one of its angles and reads: TALAGNI MAQ..... (Macalister 1945, 174, no. 181). The stone is broken beyond the Q and the remainder of the inscription is missing. (Cuppage 1986, no. 674)
