Site Description

The Pontsticill inscribed stone is a tall narrow monolith, 1.3m high, leaning at a slight angle. There are two inscriptions, one is indecipherable while the other, located on the South West corner is in Ogham; reading MAQI DECEDA. There is a recumbent slab next to it, possibly part of its base. Set in a slight hollow.
