The National Monuments Service's description
This monument was reported to the Archaeological Survey of Ireland by Tony Miller on 28th January 2013. he describes the stone as follows: "It is situated c. 6m. north-east of the cross shaft and sits on top of the central, early Christian enclosure and burial ground (CO118-031001-). However, I visited this site recently and noted that this bullaun is cut into the surface of a circular shaped piece of masonry, possibly connected with the other pieces at the site or maybe even a partially broken millstone. Only excavation would make it definitive but the exposed part of the bullaun does appear circular with a regular thickness of c. 0.18m and c. 0.75m in diameter."
