Within a pre-Romanesque church (KK020-017001-), which was later extended westward, the original church becoming the chancel. This ogham stone, first noted in 1869 (Anon. 1868-9, 281-2; Macalister 1945, 33-4, no. 28), was reused as a sill for a round-headed window which was inserted in the E gable in the late 12th/early 13th century, replacing the original window (Ó Carragáin 2010, 158, fig. 166). It is a long rectangular block of red sandstone (dims. 1.55m x 0.22m) with seven closely set incised strokes visible on its lower edge at S end. Macalister (ibid.) read the inscription as TASEGAGNI [MAQ]I MUCOI MACORBO. McManus (1997, 67) could only be certain of ...MUC... MAC... . A second ogham stone (KK020-017010-) was discovered in the 1970s, built into the base of the N wall of the nave (Manning and Moore 1997, 370-372).
