Bullaun stone in Cill Éinne

Bullaun stone

What is recorded here

Bullaun stones in Cill Éinne: two granite bowls, one on each side of the Teaghlach Éinne doorway. The larger lies diagonally across from the entrance near the south wall, broken at one end, its off-centre hollow measuring 0.38m by 0.27m. The smaller sits opposite the doorway. Together they bracket the threshold like a choice: enter through stone, or be marked by it.
This granite bullaun stone (L 0.65m; Wth 0.52m) lies almost diagonally across from the doorway of Teaghlach Éinne (GA119-020001-), close to the S wall. It is roughly rectangular in shape and broken at one end. A hollowed bowl (L0.38m; Wth 0.27m; D 0.1m) is placed off-centre on its surface. Another bullaun stone (GA119-020009-) lies near the doorway on the opposite side of the church. Compiled by: Olive Alcock Date of upload: 5 February 2016
