Embedded in the top of the wall of the chapter house of the Cistercian Abbey (TS061-024----), at the NW angle. A limestone boulder (dims. 0.77m x 0.59m; H 0.39m) with a very rough external surface except for one face which has been worked to form a punch dressed flat surface (Wth 0.56m). It has a large circular flat-bottomed basin (diam. 0.4m; D 0.26m) with a very smooth interior. There is no hole in the basin. Compiled by: Jean Farrelly Date of upload: 30 June 2015

Likely dating to the early medieval period, the Bullaun stone may have had a ritual or symbolic function, possibly associated with the Cistercian Abbey or earlier pre-Christian traditions. Such stones are often linked to healing practices or as markers for sacred sites.
