Old characters synonymous with The Script made a lasting impression on The Stones (5)
I believe the answer is:
ogham
'old characters' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for ogham that I've seen before include "Old British characters" , "Old form of writing" , "Old Celtic alphabet" , "Celtic characters" , "character forming" .)
