Bullaun stone in Drummin (ballinacor North By.)

At the base of a relatively steep S facing slope, overlooking the Keocha Brook, a large granite boulder (L 2.3m; Wth 1.1m; H 0.8m) with three bowl shaped basins. Basin 1 (diam. 0.29m; D 0.07-0.12m) is at the NE end and cut into the slope of the boulder; Basin 2 is oval in shape (diam. 0.4m x 0.3m; D 0.12-0.27m); Basin 3 is also oval in shape (diam. 0.35m x 0.42m; D 0.2m). The boulder is presently sitting on the ground surface, but was probably originally earthfast. Compiled by: Chris Corlett and Claire Breen Date of upload: 14 February 2013

Likely dating to the Early Christian or earlier prehistoric period, bullaun stones were often used for ritual purification or as holy sites associated with Christian saints. The basins may have been used for holding holy water or as part of ceremonial practices linked to local folklore or pilgrimage traditions.
