The National Monuments Service's description
Large granite conglomerate boulder (dims. 0.9m x 0.7m x 0.4m) with quartz inclusions containing a deep central depression (diam. 0.5m x 0.32m; D 0.25m), a second depression exists on the underside of the boulder. Originally found in a field beside an old building that was locally believed to have been a possible church. This building was located in the adjoining townland of Carrigagown North. Moved from original location and now kept in the grounds of a private house at Skehanagh (TN009-065). A second bullaun stone (TN009-066001/067) was discovered at the site and was moved to the grounds of the R.C. church in the nearby village of Kilbarron (Newchapel).
