This is the fursthest stone from the field gate that I found. It is rather unusual, beacuse the upper surface has been squared-off and the single bullaun is set into a raised, flat, rectangular area. The bullaun is quite small at about 20cm in diameter.

I didn't remember that I had managed to find this stone the last time I was down here. Even when I saw it I didn't realise I had. Still, do I mind revisiting a bullaun stone? Not at all! Today was a much nicer day, too, so it was doubly worth it.
