It is funny that you can go to a place so often and not see something quite obvious! If you park by the river just by the gatehouse there is a bullaun stone next to the field gate at the far end of the carpark. Next to it is a crude cross base.
I think somebody had tried to make nettle tea in this one as the water was bright green. Yuk! The bullaun cup is 15cm across and the same deep. The stone that it is in seems to have been broken off a larger piece that may have held more bullauns than this single one.
It's so easy to ignore this stone in the midst of all the other amazing stones in the immediate vicinity, so I made a point of stopping by it and taking some pictures with a scale.
