The National Monuments Service's description

One of 15 ogham stones found in a souterrain (CO055-007003-) in a ringfort (CO055-007001-) at Ballyknock North, Co Cork (see CO055-007012-) and currently on permanent display in the Stone Corridor, University College Cork. The inscription was read by Macalister (1945, 89, no. 90) and McManus (2004, 19, no. 16.) as CRONUN MAC BAIT. A fracture after the final T may have obscured further letters. (Power et al. 1994, no. 4223)
