What is recorded here

Irregularly shaped earthfast stone (max. dims. 0.85m x 0.75m) with a circular bullaun (diam. 0.23m; D 0.18m) in its upper surface at one end, accompanied by three shallow depressions (dims. 0.05-0.06m) roughly arranged in an arc. Tradition that it was a cure for warts (local information). The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cavan' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1995). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload/revision: 22 December 2008
