On a gentle ESE-facing slope, in rough pasture, c. 14m to NE of a tertiary road. Not depicted on any OS historic mapping. Noted by Westropp (1917, 11) and identified and photographed on www.megalithomania.com in 2003 (http://www.megalithomania.com/show/site/866/tyredagh_lower_bullaun_stone.htm, accessed 27 November 2018). A weathered bullaun stone (1m N-S; 0.82m E-W; H 0.51m) pear-shaped in plan. A very well-formed, roughly circular basin (0.36m N-S; 0.4m E-W; D 0.17m) occupies the S half of the stone. A much shallower but very smooth depression (0.32m N-S; 0.35m E-W; D 3cm) is c. 5cm to N. The stone is covered in lichens across the upper surface and mosses around the edge, where there are some rough solution marks and hairline fissures.
