In pastureland. This is a limestone glacial erratic boulder (H 0.65m; L 1.55m; Wth 1.25m) with a number of fissures on its surface. According to local information, the water that collected in the fissures was regarded as holy water and people used to bless themselves with it when they passed the boulder. The boulder was not dedicated to a particular saint and the water was not a cure for any particular ailment. A similar boulder (GA030-088----), with the same tradition, lies c. 440m to the SW.
