This is a bit nasty to find as it is not in the church yard as I expected. It is situated beside a little spring to the north east of the church, 15m outside the graveyard enlosure.
It is a low flat earthfast boulder with a single bullaun measuring about 15cm in diameter and just 10cm deep.

After taking the time to read through the Wicklow Archaeological Inventory I was amazed to see that Roundwood Graveyard is host to three bullaun stones not one. I had no choice really - I had to stop here on the way to Glendalough and check them out.

That's it for today - 25 bullaun stones! What a great day. We searched high and low for the fourth stone mentioned by Liam Price to no avail.
From Roundwood take the R755 south and turn left at the first opportunity - signposted Roundwood Graveyard. At the top of the road you will see the church on your left, park here and walk around the east end of the church. You will see a part of the wall to your right that you can climb over. Enter the next field and go diagonally to your left under some barbed wire. You will see the bullaun next to a little spring.
