Bullaun stone

What is recorded here

This bullaun is almost centrally located within an ecclesiastical enclosure (GA118-029001-) and is adjacent to the E wall of a farmhouse that was subsequently built in it. The bullaun (0.8m N-S; H 0.62m) is roughly triangular in shape. It bears one basin V-shaped basin (base Wth 0.3m; D 0.37m). Compiled by: Olive Alcock Date of upload: 6 February 2020
Likely dating to the early Christian period, this bullaun stone may have had ritual or ecclesiastical significance, possibly used for ceremonial purposes or associated with a monastic site. Its location within an ecclesiastical enclosure suggests a connection to religious activity, though specific folklore or use remains unrecorded.
