Bullaun stone

Why this matters

A local standing stone or piece of rock art; wider significance not recorded.

What is recorded here

Situated just off the crest of the E-facing slope of a wide N-S col with summits c. 400m to the SW and c. 700m to the NNW. This is an early ecclesiastical site consisting largely of an ecclesiastical enclosure (WA002-048003-). There is no evidence of a church structure (WA002-048001-) or of a graveyard (WA002-048002-), but three bullaun stones of Old Red Sandstone conglomerate are at the site, and a fourth may be missing. A bullaun stone is marked on the 1928 ed. of the OS 6-inch map on a field bank running N from the perimeter of the ecclesiastical enclosure (WA002-048003-) at E, which is now removed, and there is local knowledge that a bullaun stone was buried on the site when the land was reclaimed.
