The National Monuments Service's description
A bullaun stone is recorded by Power (1952, 135) and is known locally. It was formerly located on wet ground beside a stream. The land has since been reclaimed and the bullaun stone is now lost.
The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Waterford' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1999). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
