This ogham stone fragment was discovered among stones from a demolished field fence. Of siliceous grit, it measures .33m x .12m x .07m and was apparently broken in antiquity. The inscription is pocked along one of the corner edges and reads: . . . . A MAQ LUG . . .
The fragment is now in KCM (L1992:86; NMI 1960:272; see KE029-247----). (O'Sullivan and Sheehan 1996, 241, no. 909)
