No. 2. This stone measures 1.37m x 0.76m x 0.45m and tapers to a point towards the top. The stone bears an Ogam inscription arranged around a circular stem and below this the crescent and V-rod symbol. There are traces of a double-disc symbol which appears to have been erased to make way for a rod and larger double disc enclosed with the two ornamental bars of a Z-rod with no diagonal.
