Cotts Red Ogham Stone, Wexford County, Ireland
(December 23, 2024) These 2 stones stand at a distance of 3′ 9″ apart. Significantly, the right one with the ogham is red granite having dimensions of 5' 7" x 1' 10" x 1' 7"). The left one is made from the local grit having dimension 5' 8" x 1' 11" x 1' 10"). Between them is a boulder of bluestone (2′ 7″ x 1' 7" x 1' 6"). Excavation showed that the first stone is sunk to a depth of 1' 6", the second of 1' 10", and that the intervening space is filled with a packing of rounded stones of the average size of a man's fist. No trace of any interment was discovered.
In this case the stone's red color represents the blood of death.
