I was totally taken by surprise with this stone as it is not on the map. I nearly drove past it but was curious about its shape. It did not look like a stone usually put in front of a house to stop people parking.
My natural curiosity got the better of me and I stopped to have a look. I am so glad I did. The stone has one central bullaun and one shallow cup either side of it. Unfortunately, it is cemented on to the footpath and the cement has a very shoddy inscription in it.

There are actually three small depressions around the central bullaun, making this one of the very few examples of cup-marks sharing the same stone as a bullaun. Two of them are very worn which may mean that there were once other marking on the stone that have now vanished. The inscription in the concrete is fading now.
