This is slightly more than an ogham stone, but I do not have a catagory for 'cross enscribed ogham stone' - where would it end!?
This large boulder has a flat face that looks west. Upon this face is an expanded cross in a circle. The cross is deeply carved and the circle makes the quarters of the raised section look like a huge boss.
Running up one side of the boulder and across the top (above the cross) is the ogham inscription. This does not follow an edge and has had the centre line carved in with it. The inscription reads: ANM COLMAN AILITHIR (the name of Colman the Pilgrim - Weir).
The stone stands inside a round enclosure about 40m in diameter, along with some rubble, from which no structural forms are discernable beneath the grass.
