The National Monuments Service's description
In a roadside fence, on the S side of the road leading to Temple Feaghna church and graveyard (KE102-038001-, KE102-038002-). A stone with a bowl-shaped hollow (diam. 0.2m; D 0.08m) on its upper surface is set into the side of the fence. According to local information, this bullaun stone was once in the graveyard and was part of the rounds associated with the nearby holy well, Tobarfeaghna (KE102-038004-). Another bullaun stone (KE102-038003-) lies c. 35m to the N.
