Inside the perimeter of a rath (RO015-051002-) at the SW is a sandstone upright (dims 0.45m x. 0.5m; H 1.05m) which has a weathered ogham inscription on one angle. It has been read as: CUNOVATO (Macalister 1914, 139; Hayward 1955, 211) or CUVEATA (Beirne 2000, 25), but these readings cannot be confirmed due to the extent of the weathering. A second (uninscribed) standing stone (RO015-051003-) is 1.5m to the S inside the rath and in 1985 a second ogham stone (RO015-051004-) was discovered in the bank which became dislodged and is now lying on the ground outside the rath.
This is a National Monument in state ownership: No. 650
This stone has been studied as part of the ‘Ogham in 3D’ project undertaken by the School of Celtic Studies, Dublin Institute for Advanced Studies. To access details go to the following website: https://ogham.celt.dias.ie/search.php?ciic=11
