Standing on a post-1700 cut stone column in Cappercullen Glen beside mass rock (LI007-014----) and fragments of wall tombs (LI007-015/016/017----) and architectural fragments which came from Owney Abbey (LI014-014002-) in Abington. Well worked limestone bowl (diam. 0.3m) roughly faceted with shallow depression (diam. 0.17m; D 0.05m) possibly originally used as a stoup in a church, and may have come from Abington however this is not certain. The flat base of the bowl has a hole for fixing it to a column on which it stands. The stone appears to have been a freestanding stoup supported on a column possibly inside the doorway of a church. The dating of the stoup is uncertain.
