About

The Tullygarran ogham stones are a pair of ogham stones forming a National Monument located in County Kerry, Ireland.

Tullygarran Ogham Stones are located 4.2 kilometres (2.6 mi) east of Tralee, near to Chute Hall.

The stones were discovered in 1848 after a storm uncovered an ancient burial ground overlooking Smerwick Bay. Dayrolles Eveleigh-de-Moleyns, 4th Baron Ventry moved them to his home at Chute Hall.
