This bulllaun stone is in the middle of a field 100m southeast of the church and it's a beauty!

There are three complete bullauns along its length and a fourth that breaks the north edge of the stone. The earthfast boulder is 1.8m long (east to west) and 80cm wide. The three complete bullauns are each around 30cm in diameter. There aren't really any views to speak of, because the field dips down to where the stone is.
