Mass-rock in Cullomane West

In rough grazing, on a SW-facing slope. An irregular stone (1.2m NE-SW; 0.8m NW-SE; H 0.8m) at the top of a steep slope is known locally as a mass-rock. According to local information, the priest placed his book on the ledge at the NE side of the rock and the people sat on the nearby smaller boulder-type stones, when Mass was celebrated here during penal times.
