This is a truly wonderful bullaun stone. Its surface is flush with the ground, so it's easy to see how I once walked right over it: it would only take a half decent summer to make the grass grow back over it.
There are four bullauns ranging from 10cm in diameter to 25cm across. Next to these are two more basins that have merged into one. Being so close to the edge of a stream and flush with the ground means that it will nearly always hold water.
Of the four Brittas bullauns this is my favourite, because it feels and looks so organic - almost as if it grew where it lies instead of being manufactured.
