The National Monuments Service's description
This is the present location of one of six ogham stones found in a souterrain (CO072-078002-) in a ringfort (CO072-078001-) at Knockshanawee, Co Cork (see CO072-078008-). This stone (1.8m; 0.8m x 0.25m), the eighth lintel, is missing its top. The surviving part of the inscription is given by Power (1932, 24, no. 28) and McManus (2004, 15, no. 3) as COLLI, and by Macalister (1945, 116, no. 117) as COLLOS. (Power et al. 1997, no. 7974)
