A stone bearing an ogham inscription, now in the Museum of Scotland, was found in 1931 in an area formerly known as 'Kill y Kiaran', near the site of four long-cist burials. Broken at one end, it is 0.25m by 82mm by 57mm. The scored letters use one angle as a base-line and read [ ]CRON(?A)?N, probably including the Irish personal name 'Cronan'. (NMS X.HPO 470).
