A group of rather frisky-looking horses guard this stone and the low church ruins that it now sits inside. The site is right next to the coast and has great views and a wonderful atmosphere created by the surf crashing into the beach below.
The walls of the tiny church are no more than 60cm high. Its small size points to its early date. In the centre of the structure you can just see the bullaun stone from the wall by the gate. The single bullaun/basin appears as if it occupies nearly the whole of the stone's surface and could easily be 35cm across.
A few hundred metres to the east is one of the finest, grandest limekilns I've ever seen.
