What is recorded here

Located on rock outcrop in an area of dense scrub. Discovered during land reclamation work in the 1950s when human bones were uncovered (TN009-058001). A granite boulder with a possible bullaun was removed by a local farmer and dumped into a nearby field fence (OPW report 1957). The bullaun stone could not be found. The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Tipperary. Vol. 1 - North Tipperary' compiled by Jean Farrelly and Caimin O'Brien (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2002). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload/revision: 22 September 2008
