This fragment of an ogham-inscribed sandstone pillar measures .66m long, .28m wide and .07m thick, and is now in Kerry County Museum in Tralee (L1992:29; CPM L286; see KE029-321----). When first recorded by Macalister (1939a, 17), it was built into a stile a short distance S of MacCrehin's Castle (KE079-068001-). The well-preserved ogham scores are deeply cut and read:
. . . ]QNETN[ . . . Two vowel notches follow the last consonant but the edge of the stone is spalled off after this point. (Macalister 1945, no. 238; O’Sullivan and Sheehan 1996, no. 919)
