Bullaun stone in Derryrush

Bullaun stone

What is recorded here

In rough gorse-covered pasture, on a SW-facing slope, under the tarred surface at the N side of the Lehid-Kilmakilloge road. According to local information, a bowl-shaped hollow, which was always filled with water, was visible in the natural rock before the road was tarred. This hollow was known locally as a holy well. There is a mass-rock (KE108-059001-) c. 10m to the SE on the opposite side of the road. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Kerry. Volume I: South-West Kerry' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2009). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload: 30 May 2011
