Bullaun stone in Tully More (malin Ed)

Bullaun stone

What is recorded here

Bullaun stone in Tully More (malin Ed) is a roughly circular stone with a deep central depression, set at the NE corner of an outhouse beside a rath in County Donegal. The hollow may have shaped prayer, patience or repetition, since such stones often mark places where the body worked until flesh and stone agreed. Even without a named saint in the facts, the depression suggests a person stood there long enough to make suffering visible.
Located 8.3m S of a rath (DG004-002----), at the NE corner of an outhouse. Roughly circular stone (diam. 0.67m; T c. 0.3m), in centre of one surface of which there is a circular depression (diam. 0.28m; D 0.22m). Compiled by: Jane O'Shaughnessy Date of upload: 12 April 2016
