Visit Notes

Sunday, 30th November 2003

200m north of the round tower in the corner of the field is an exposed area of heavily weathered limestone. This does not appear to have a bullaun in it, but that could be covered up with grass now.

Very close by is a large hollow, which could be the result of somebody levering out a large stone. Perhaps this is where the bullaun stone once lay.
