This triple bullaun stone (L 1.35m; H 0.95m; T 0.34m) is located c. 1m to the SE of a double bullaun stone (GA094-072008-) in the S section of the graveyard (GA094-072003-) within the early ecclesiastical enclosure (GA094-072002-) at Roscam. It is set upright in the ground with the basins facing SW. The uppermost basin (dims. 0.43m x 0.36m) is slightly larger than the middle one (dims. 0.41m x 0.3m). The lower basin (diam. 0.37m) is partially embedded in the ground. Both bullaun stones were regarded locally as holy wells (Fahey 1901a, 229). Named on the 1944-5 revision of the OS 6-inch maps as 'Penitential Station'.
