On a visit to Dingle in 1838, Windele (1838, 81) was informed of an ogham stone at Esk Glens, 2.5m N of Dingle town. This place name is not recorded elsewhere but may refer to the townlands of Glin North and South which lie approximately 2.5m N of Dingle. No ogham stone is known from anywhere in this vicinity and, as Windele does not appear to have visited the stone, its authenticity is uncertain. The evidence is insufficient to warrant accepting it as genuine ogham stone.
The above description is derived from J. Cuppage, ‘Corca Dhuibhne. Dingle Peninsula archaeological survey. Ballyferriter. Oidhreacht Chorca Dhuibhne’ (1986), no. 806. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.

The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
The map shows the centre of the officially named townland area, not the monument. The government record does not identify the exact monument point.
