What is recorded here

Ballintaggart church (KE053-033001-) (site of) and old burial ground (KE053-033002-) /An Cheallúnach or An Lisín: This circular enclosure crowns the summit of a low, but prominent, hillock between Dingle Harbour and Trabeg (Cuppage 1986, no. 820). Macalister (1945, 151-7) recorded nine ogham stones collected together at the site. These 'mostly pulvinar' or oval water-rolled boulders resemble the stones found 'about 6 miles away' at Minard storm beach. Eight of the nine stones are now arranged in a circle within the stone enclosure with the ninth placed centrally. A tenth ogham stone was discovered in the 1980's but only protrudes 24cm above the ground (Devane 2001, 369). Compiled by: Paul Walsh Date of upload: 31 December 2014
