What is recorded here

Situated towards the bottom of a W-facing slope. An early ecclesiastical site remains unplanted within a coniferous forest. The ecclesiastical enclosure (WA016-059002-) contains a rectangular enclosure against the inside of the bank at E within which are the foundations of a two-cell building (WA016-059001-). A bullaun stone (Power 1952, 373) attested at the site c. 1985 (Carroll 1985, 22) can no longer be found. Compiled by: Michael Moore. Date of upload/revision: 21st December 2010.

Probably dating to the early Christian period, the bullaun stone may have been used for ritual purification or as part of monastic activity. Such stones are often associated with holy wells or sites of spiritual significance in Irish folklore.
