What is recorded here

Three shallow lines cut into the angular edge of the stone, waiting for a language forgotten by everyone who has pointed at them since. The stone stands in open pasture, unsteady in its own shape, while a broken row of rocks lies a hundred metres west like a sentence abandoned mid-thought. Whatever was written there has stopped answering, but the cuts remain sharp enough to keep asking.

In pasture, on a gentle S-facing slope. This upright stone (dims. 2m x 1m; H c. 2.7m) is oval in shape and irregular in plan and orientated NNE-SSW. The NNE edge of the stone is angular. Three short parallel ogham-like lines were noted on the NNE edge of the stone. A stone row (KE058-105----) lies c. 100m to the W.

Dated likely to the early Christian period (5th–7th centuries AD), the stone's orientation and ogham-like markings may indicate a funerary or territorial function, though their precise meaning remains uncertain. Local folklore sometimes associates such stones with ancient druids or protective boundary markers.
