The National Monuments Service's description
This granite bullaun stone (L 0.65m; Wth 0.52m) lies almost diagonally across from the doorway of Teaghlach Éinne (GA119-020001-), close to the S wall. It is roughly rectangular in shape and broken at one end. A hollowed bowl (L0.38m; Wth 0.27m; D 0.1m) is placed off-centre on its surface. Another bullaun stone (GA119-020009-) lies near the doorway on the opposite side of the church.
