Tá go leor clocha nach féidir ach cuid den inscríbhinn a léamh orthu. Go minic, tharla sé seo de bharr suíomh na hinscríbhinne ar imeall leochaileach na cloiche agus athúsáid na gclocha Ogham in uaimheanna talún nó i dtógáil eile.
Ogham inscriptions are found in most counties in Ireland, but there is a marked concentration in the south-west, in counties Kerry, Cork and Waterford. Kerry alone has approximately 1/3 of the total and the barony of Corca Dhuibhne on the Dingle peninsula has the highest concentration with approximately 60 Ogham stones originating in this area. Outside of Ireland Ogham stones are also found in the areas where the Irish settled, such as Wales, the Isle of Man, Devon and Cornwall, and Scotland, although most of the Scottish oghams appear to be in Pictish or Old Norse. The distribution of Ogham inscriptions would seem to suggest that the practice originated in the south-west of Ireland. Furthermore, the fact that later inscriptions are also found in high numbers here suggests that this area remained a focal point for Ogham to the end of the tradition. The physical condition of the Ogham inscriptions varies considerably with many partially illegible. This is frequently owing to the location of the inscription on the vulnerable edge of the stone and to the re-use of Ogham stones in souterrains or other constructions. Indeed, Ogham stones are quite frequently found re-used, primarily in souterrains (over 40% of the total in Ireland), which is particularly common in Co. Cork. More than 40% of Ogham stones are found at or near ecclesiastical sites, although it can often be difficult to determine whether or not the find site was the original site.
