This is an odd one. It was moved to its current location (outside a modern church door) in 1987. A sign next to it says it is the font from St Kieran's Monastery, but we know it is a bullaun stone. It probably was used as a font at some time, but it is much older than St. Kieran's times.
The stone is cemented on to the top of a brick column. It has a single bullaun that occupies most of its surface area. The bullaun is 30cm in diameter and 20cm deep.
